Lamine Yamal has denied that he was trying to meet an adult movie star when the debate arose about who made sure that a meeting between the 17-year-old and 29-year-old did not take place.
Barcelona Yamal has stayed on stage in recent months because of his stunning success at both club and international level, which represents Barca and Spain respectively.
In the low season, the teenager took the time to enjoy some downtime – he is currently in Rio de Janeiro with 'Idol' Neymar, who was previously taken away with another woman for 12 years his senior.
But now, just a few days after images of Yamal and only fans model Fati Vazquez emerged, he was hired a debate about a meeting with Claudia Bavel who never blossomed.
Yamal was indirectly seen in the Spanish TV program Tardear, where producers saw an outdoor interview with Yamal that saw him claim that he did not meet the Bavel because he was 'not interested' in a discussion between the two.
Alex Alvarez, meanwhile – a reporter in the show – claimed that there had been claims that Bagl's plan was to hire a photographer and to sell images of a meeting, of which Yamal said it would have been impossible because he lives with his mother, who allows no unknown visitors. However, Belvel has now spoken and goes to social media to give her side of the story.
The model, which was also present at Tardear on Friday evening, shared her 259,000 followers: 'I chose not not to publicly discuss it in 2025. Since Lamine Yamal called our alleged relationship on Tardear, I think it is appropriate to share my version with clarity and respect.
“He claims to live with his mother, but in reality it lives alone. He says he rejected me when he was the one who sought my contact and stood on to meet. He denies that we met, despite crossing paths at various social events.
'I ask with respect that offensive and defamatory messages stop. I have never had a relationship with a minor, never arranged a meeting and there was never a plan with fame or money.
'The only thing we agree with is that we never happened between us. There are people behind the headlines and public opinion. Out of respect, I ask for understanding and restraint. '
Speaking in the show later that day, she added that they did not meet because she did not want to meet a minor. She also claimed that they have Stemnots from Yamal and say they could spend time together despite the age gap.
She said that she cut the contact with the star long ago, but claimed that she recently received a message from Yamal who threatened her not to talk about their conversations.
“Ask her if you want it,” Yamal had said. “She will probably get the excuse that” he is a minor, “but we never met because I told her that I was not interested.”
Belv – who was previously involved in a row with Real Madrid and Spain – legend Iker Casillas – appeared in the show on Friday evening, after the original news was reported on Thursday.
The new controversy comes after photos of Yamal were published on holiday with Spanish stewardess and social media influencer Fati Vazquez, who is 29 years old. Spanish magazine Lecturas published images of the couple on a Jetski together on the island of Pantelleria in southern Sicily.
In recent days it followed Yamal and Vazquez who posted photos of the same location, with the couple enjoying a life of luxury that was on a boat trip, relaxed by a swimming pool and flies in a helicopter.
Lecturas wrote that the couple 'does not want to give a name to their obvious friendship', but said they 'get along perfectly'.
'Their proximity is such that they do not hesitate to go on holiday at an important moment; They added. “They wanted to get everything away and celebrate the many successes of the season.”
The report claimed that there is a 'clear connection between them' and 'the age difference is not an obstacle to their understanding'.
Yamal, however, has denied that they are a few after they have spoken with gossip expert Javi de Hoyos.
The Hoyos claims that he was able to talk to Yamal, and he categorically denies that he is at Vazquez; He says they have nothing wrong.
“Lamine did not just go to this vacation spot, but with other Barca teammates,” the Hoyos added.
Vazquez also spoke about the recoil she has received, while she declares that she is 29 years old, after she was initially reported as 30.
The influencer said she received death threats after the photos of her with Yamal, while she explains that they are “two people who want a good time.”
“I really get P **** D away, people even wish me through it,” Vazquez told the Spanish television show La Familia de la Tele.
'I receive death threats and messages that call me a pedophile.
“First I am 29, I haven't reached the 1930s yet. I did nothing, nobody killed. The reactions are just too heavy and it even influences him [Lamine].
'I don't want to say anything anymore whether much of it or make it morbid, because I think it is completely superfluous.
“We are only two people who want a good time, and that's it.”
Vazquez shared another message on Instagram and responded to critics, from her in a swimming pool in Italy, with the caption: “Imagine you talk about me badly and I am here like that.”
