Lamine Yamal with his smiling dad after the Euro 2024 final Getty Yamal’s dad Mounir Nasraoui was stabbed several times on Wednesday with four suspects now being arrested Reuters Nasraoui shared a health update on Instagram saying he is ‘better now’ Instagram Footage captured the moment Yamal’s dad, far right, was yelled at and had water thrown on him by a group of men Tiktok
The dad of the Euro 2024 star was ruthlessly stabbed at around 9pm in Mataró before being taken to Can Ruti hospital with severe injuries.
The row started after a group of shirtless men yelled and threw water at Nasraoui from a balcony while he was walking his dog in Mataró, reported Relevo .
Police separated the men and took the dad away from the heated situation.
Later that day Nasraoui was assaulted and admitted to an intensive care unit in Barcelona for treatment.
It is unclear if the men in the footage are the same ones who have been arrested or if they have any relation to Nasraoui’s attackers.
A spokesman for the regional police force said this morning: “The investigation is still open and officers are still trying to establish the level of implication of those detained.
“More arrests may take place later today.
“We’re not in a position to offer any more details at this stage about the arrested men’s ages and nationalities.
“What we can say is that the stabbing occurred at 9.10pm in a car park and the arrests took place a couple of hours later and the three people arrested were in custody by 11pm.”
They added that the circumstances surrounding the stabbing and the row prior is still under investigation and may form an important part of the probe.
Barcelona’s president Joan Laporta was among those who visited his star winger’s dad in hospital.
Nasraoui is renowned for being his son’s number one supporter and was there when the 17-year-old secured the European Championship title this year.
But he has been in trouble with the law before.
Last year, Nasroui was forced to pay £470 after he assaulted a group and attacked a tent belonging to the right wing party Vox during the election.
Yamal is preparing for Barcelona’s first La Liga match of the season this Saturday against Mestella, with the stabbing reportedly affecting his preparation.
The rise of Lamine Yamal
LAMINE Yamal, 17, was the breakout star of Euros after scoring a wonder goal in the semi final against France.
At just 15, Yamal made his debut for Barcelona in LaLiga – coming off the bench for a lively cameo.
In doing so, he became the Catalan giants’ youngest ever player this century.
He is fiercely proud of his roots – donning the flags of both of those countries on his Adidas F50 boots, the same worn by his idol Lionel Messi , who he has been compared to, and told GQ that the same people who call him the ‘next Messi’ are also likely to criticise him.
A baby Yamal was lovingly held by the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner, just 20 himself at the time, before being given a bath.
Yamal’s mum and dad split when he was a young boy, so he divided his time between two homes – using a train pass to get around.
