Yamal's World Cup Hopes Amid Injury Fears

The 18-year-old Barcelona sensation suffered the injury in April after scoring a winning penalty against Celta Vigo. Despite initial fears of a serious hamstring tear, tests confirmed a less severe issue with an expected recovery timeline that would make him available for the World Cup.

This comes after Yamal had an injury-disrupted season, including a five-game absence earlier due to a groin issue. The teenage winger made headlines at Euro 2024 and is considered a generation-defining talent for Spain, making his potential fitness crucial for La Roja's World Cup ambitions. sports24.club
