Spain’s national team is facing internal chaos after Lamine Yamal reportedly issued a shocking ultimatum to coach Luis de la Fuente: “If he stays in the team, I will leave… forever.” The explosive statement came after growing tensions between Yamal and veteran defender Dani Carvajal, following a series of training-ground disputes that have divided the squad.

Carvajal didn’t stay silent for long. The Real Madrid right-back fired back publicly, saying he “won’t tolerate disrespect from anyone, no matter how talented they are.” His comments immediately fueled speculation about an irreparable rift inside the dressing room, with senior players now urging the RFEF to step in before it escalates further.
