A mural honoring Raminyamal has been defaced in Barcelona. Social media posts from Monday show images of seven dwarfs from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" painted around Yamal’s likeness on a mural located in Plaza Joanic.
Yamal is said to have included dwarves among the entertainment at a private birthday celebration last month. Originally, the artwork depicted the young Barcelona star as a superhero and was created by urban artist TV Boy. This mural was unveiled on July 13, just ahead of the Spanish international’s 18th birthday.
Currently, Yamal is traveling with Barcelona in Korea.
Fan Take: This incident highlights the intersection of art, culture, and soccer, showing how players like Yamal can spark conversation and controversy. For soccer fans, it reflects the passion surrounding rising stars and the influence they wield, both on and off the pitch.
