Lamine Yamal's 2024 has officially come to an end after Barcelona announced the 17-year-old suffered a grade 1 ligament injury in his right ankle keeping him out of action for three to four weeks.
In a day that began with celebration as Yamal showcased his recently won 2024 Golden Boy trophy to the Barça faithful at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, quickly soured. Leganes midfielder, Yvan Neyou, slid to clear the ball but caught Yamal with his back leg, awkwardly twisting his ankle 16 minutes into the contest.
