Just hours after celebrating Spain’s victory, Lamine Yamal’s night took a terrifying turn when two hooded figures were spotted outside his multi-million-pound home. As emergency security measures were triggered, the suspects suddenly fled the scene—leaving investigators racing to uncover what really happened

Lamine Yamal, 19, victim of attempted robbery hours after Spain beat France to reach World Cup final

LAMINE YAMAL was the victim of an attempted break-in just hours after spearheading Spain into the World Cup final.

The teenage sensation, 19, won a penalty as the one-time winners notched a stunning 2-0 victory over France last night.

But Yamal, whose girlfriend Ines Garcia Santos went wild in the stands during the semis triumph, saw his night end on a sour note.

Two hooded thieves attempted to rob his home in the outskirts of Barcelona.

The intended intruders were spotted perching on a wall surrounding Yamal’s property in the early hours of this morning.

And, before they could attempt to force an entry, the World Cup superstar’s private security raced into action.

The pair of yobs fled after realising they had been picked up by cameras and Catalan police, who have got their hands on snaps of the burglars, have now launched an investigation.

Cops raced to the address when the Barcelona fan favourite’s private security triggered the emergency protocol.

And police have opened proceedings for an attempted robbery with force, while the Criminal Investigation Division is analysing CCTV recordings in a bid to identify the suspects.

Yamal showed off his £9.5MILLION mansion in a house tour video shortly before jetting out to the World Cup.

The huge property was previously owned by former Barcelona defender Gerard Pique and Colombian singer Shakira before their split in 2022.

And the attempted raid comes after TWO of Yamal’s Nou Camp team-mates were victims of robberies in February.

Pau Cubarsi had a high-end watch stolen before intruders took cash and jewellery from Joan Garcia’s home days later.

Yamal has been in sensational form at the World Cup and grabbed his first-ever goal in the tournament during a 4-0 thumping of Saudi Arabia last month.

He also notched 24 goals and 18 assists in 45 appearances for Barcelona in the 2025/26 season.

But the attempted robbery may have shifted Yamal’s focus as he guns for World Cup glory on Sunday.
