Soccer’s shortest romance just became its ugliest scandal. Lamine Yamal, the 18-year-old Barcelona wunderkind who’s dazzled with 10 goals this La Liga term, and Nicki Nicole, the 25-year-old Argentine trap queen, called it quits after exactly 13 days of public bliss – from July 26’s Monaco meet-cute to October 19’s ghosting. Yamal’s TV confessional painted it “mutual, no hard feelings,” but Nicki Nicole’s midnight IG dump has fans worldwide baying for blood: explicit screenshots of Yamal grooming 14-year-old TikTok darling Sofia Reyes.

The clockwork crumble: sparks flew at a French Riviera bash, ignited with Nicki’s Camp Nou kiss cam on August 25, fizzled amid Yamal’s “solo” Milan jaunt with influencer Giulia Gegnoso. But Nicki, voice trembling in a 10-minute Live that’s exploded to 30M views, revealed the rot: “13 days? Try 13 lies. I found his chats with Sofia – a kid! ‘You’re my little secret, fly to Ibiza, I’ll make you a star.’ At 14? He’s a monster.” Screenshots, watermarked August 10, show Yamal’s private: plane tickets, “princess” pet names, even a “can’t wait to hold you” post-Nicki date.

Sofia Reyes, the fresh-faced Catalan creator with 3.2M followers and Barca-themed dances, broke her silence in a shaky Reel: “He DM’d after my Yamal edit went viral July 28. Said I was ‘special’ – next thing, private jet invites. I thought it was innocent. Now? Traumatized.” Spanish child protection agencies are investigating; Yamal’s deleted everything, camp claiming “deepfakes – we split first.”

Global fury’s volcanic. #JusticeForSofia trends with 45M posts, Barca boycotts brewing – ultras vandalizing his locker with “Pedo Yamal” graffiti. Nicki’s empowered: “I stayed silent for his image – no more. Girls, speak up.” Yamal’s benched indefinitely by Xabi Alonso amid “mental health review,” Ballon d’Or odds tanking. From Euros prodigy to pariah, the 13-day debacle exposes fame’s underbelly. Fans rage: “Talent doesn’t excuse this.” As probes deepen, Yamal’s empire crumbles – and Nicki rises, phoenix-style. The beautiful game’s beauty? Tarnished. Who’s next to fall?
