Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal has sent a humorous message to his national teammate Marc Cucurella, who recently joined Real Madrid.
Cucurella, 27, made a move from Chelsea back to La Liga this month, signing with the Spanish giants.
He is anticipated to become the starting left-back for Real Madrid under José Mourinho, taking over from Álvaro Carreras for the upcoming season.
This signing means Cucurella will be responsible for marking Lamine Yamal in future clashes between Barcelona and Real Madrid.
During a recent media engagement, Lamine Yamal took the opportunity to playfully caution his fellow Spaniard.
When asked about Cucurella’s return to Spain in an interview with COPE, the 18-year-old remarked:
“Look, I told him he’ll start the first game, but by the second, he’ll be a substitute… because I’m going to eat him alive!”
