Fati Vazquez receives death threats after influencer, 30, holidays with Lamine Yamal

Lamine Yamal has been enjoying a holiday in Italy after a long season with Barcelona but fans have speculated he has been joined by influencer Fati Vazquez after the pair both posted near-identical pictures by the pool

Influencer Fati Vazquez, 30, has revealed she has received death threats after reportedly going on holiday with Barcelona’s teenage starlet Lamine Yamal.

The 17-year-old winger posted a picture of himself next to an infinity pool next to a canopy, with trees and a scenic view seen in the background of the image.

Vazquez then shared a photo which appeared to show the same pool, canopy and scenery.

That caused social media users to speculate that the two were on holiday together and romantically linked – with some critical of that possibility given the age gap between them.

In a post on social media, she wrote: “It’s sad to see people who have such darkness inside that they wish death on someone they don’t even know.

“What others project, speaks more about them than me. I choose to live with the purpose of continuing to grow and surrounding myself with light.

“To those who wish me ill, I wish them healing, because nobody who is well in themselves wishes the destruction of another.”

Another influencer who is close to Yamal, Javi de Hoyos, has debunked the claims of a romantic relationship between the pair after speaking to the player himself, insisting he had others with him on the trip.

“Lamine would not have gone alone to this holiday place but with other Barca team-mates,” De Hoyos said. “Fati probably does have something with another Barca person or is a friend of another team-mate.”

Yamal has been enjoying some time off in Italy this summer as he winds down from a hectic season that saw Barcelona win La Liga and the Copa del Rey.

The teenage star was crucial to that success as he scored 16 goals and assisted another 16 to underline his incredible ability for someone of such a young age.

He has already played 106 times for Barcelona, scoring 25 times, and has 20 caps for Spain – helping the team win Euro 2024 last summer.
