Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has officially gone public with his relationship with his rapper girlfriend Nicki Nicole, sharing a series of tender snaps on social media that leave little to the imagination.
The 18-year-old Spanish striker and the Argentine rap sensation, who has 22 million followers on Instagram, have been seen together several times in recent weeks, including at Barcelona’s match against Italian side Como in early August.
Until now, however, the relationship had gone unnoticed, but Yamal has officially revealed the secret.

In a romantic post on unknownYamal shared a photo of the couple posing in front of a birthday cake, surrounded by red, white and pink flowers and matching heart-shaped balloons. She captioned the snap with a simple cake and hearts emoji.
Nicole, known for hits like Wapo Traquetero, placeand mamichulareposted the photo with burning heart emojis.
Yamal later took to Instagram to share a short video of a similar setting in a hotel room, with Nicole seemingly behind the camera, once again showing off flowers and a cake, reinforcing that the couple is enjoying their moments together both on and off the court.
Nicole, originally from Rosario, Argentina, gained worldwide recognition after becoming the first Argentine to appear on Tonight’s show starring Jimmy Fallon in April 2021, cementing his status as an international music star.
With Yamal lighting up the Barcelona pitch and already considered one of the Ballon d’Or favourites, the pair could well be the next power couple to make headlines; not “Brangelina”, but “Laminicole”, perhaps? It doesn’t matter…
