While having no argument against Yamal's on-field performance, Rami has slammed the teen's behaviour off the pitch, including his fashion sense.
Last night, he continued, explaining on social media: "I was clearly misunderstood. I wasn't referring to the player Lamine Yamal, nor to his talent (which is enormous, no complaints about that), but to some recent behavior. Which, in my opinion, suggests a rather uncertain future if things continue like this."
Regarding the final phrase used ("nique ta mère," a vulgar French expression), he then clarified that it was a figure of speech, albeit vulgar, not directly addressed to the Blaugrana ace's family: "It was a metaphor (admittedly awkward) and not an insult to his mother or his family.
"I hope he gets his head straight, though. Because he has the potential to leave his mark on his era... in a way other than an uproar like this."
