Barcelona told Lamine Yamal's 'ability to move and shoot reduced by 50%' due to 'complicated' injury

"It is an injury that is frankly difficult to treat. It's characterised by pain that reduces the player's ability to move and shoot by almost 50%, which is exactly what we saw in El Clasico."

"He hardly shoots at goal, he has difficulty moving, he constantly stretches... It's a disabling pain that allows the player to participate in matches but keeps him from his best level and significantly diminishes his performance."

"Pubalgia is complicated. I suffer from it for a while now, I do little training and I can not play all the games. It is not a problem that can be solved overnight. I feel better now, but I still have not recovered and I still need treatment."

Pubalgia is a groin condition that produces disabling pain and is difficult to treat. Pain from pubalgia can reduce a player's ability to move and shoot by about 50 percent, markedly limiting mobility and finishing. Players may still participate in matches but perform well below their best level, with reduced shooting, restricted movement, and constant stretching to relieve discomfort. Pubalgia is common among footballers and can be chronic, requiring prolonged management rather than quick fixes. Recovery often involves reduced training, ongoing treatment, and careful rehabilitation to enable a return to top form.
