Lamine Yamal Goes Public with Girlfriend Inés García at Barcelona’s End-of-Season Dinner

Barcelona’s end-of-season dinner on Wednesday, May 20, became a notable off-pitch moment for the club when Lamine Yamal arrived alongside Spanish influencer Inés García, publicly confirming their relationship for the first time.

The 18-year-old winger, who played a central role in Barcelona’s Liga and Copa del Rey-winning campaign in 2025/26, was photographed and filmed with García, 21, at the event held in front of a “Champions LLIGA I SUPERCOPA 2025/26” backdrop. Photos and videos from the night circulated widely online shortly after.

FC Barcelona’s official social media channels shared highlights from the gathering, which brought together players, their partners, and club staff to mark the conclusion of a successful domestic season.

García, a content creator and influencer originally from Seville, had been linked to Yamal in the weeks prior to the dinner after the pair were spotted together on holiday in Greece. Speculation had mounted further after fans observed that she filmed TikTok content from what appeared to be Yamal’s home. García had previously addressed rumours surrounding her personal life, disputing claims that she had ended a long-term relationship specifically to pursue a romance with Yamal.

The confirmation of the relationship comes approximately nine months after Yamal’s reported split from Argentinian singer Nicki Nicole.

For the occasion, García wore a black long dress by Kaoa with back embellishments, paired with leather heels. Yamal arrived in a coordinated all-black outfit. Several other Barcelona players also attended with partners. Raphinha was accompanied by his wife Natalia Rodrigues, who wore a white strapless jumpsuit. Pedri arrived with girlfriend Alejandra Dorta, and Gavi attended with Spanish influencer Ana Pelayo. Pau Cubarsí also made his relationship with Martina Riera public at the event.

Additional attendees with partners included Marcus Rashford with girlfriend Lucia Loi, Joao Cancelo with girlfriend Daniela Machado, Marc Casadó with girlfriend Noa Brea, and Robert Lewandowski with his wife Anna Lewandowska. Ronald Araujo also attended with his wife. Lewandowski’s presence at what could be one of his final official Barcelona functions carries added significance, given ongoing speculation about his future at the club beyond the current season.

Players including Eric Garcia, Frenkie de Jong, Dani Olmo, and Jules Koundé attended the dinner without partners.

Yamal, who turns 19 in July 2026, has been one of European football’s most prominent young players over the past two seasons. His performances for both Barcelona and the Spanish national team — including a standout showing at Euro 2024 — have drawn consistent attention on and off the pitch.
