📸 Yamal’s mural in Barcelona vandalised: the 7 dwarfs make an appearance 😳

Barcelona is making headlines again, and this time it's not because of the spectacular football of the blaugrana. The star of the show is Lamine Yamal, the rising star of Barça and Spain, who recently found himself at the center of controversy after his birthday.

A mural dedicated to him, created by street artist TV Boy, was vandalized by urban artist Shredder. The reason? A protest related to the presence of people with achondroplasia at the young footballer's party.

🎂 The party that sparked debate

Lamine Yamal's 18th birthday did not go unnoticed. The Barcelona prodigy decided to invite people with achondroplasia to his party, held in mid-July. A choice that was seen as inclusive by some, but raised eyebrows among others.

In particular, artist Shredder considered the initiative a form of sensationalism of diversity, and decided to take action... in his own way.

🎨 Shredder strikes: the modified mural

The original mural, created by TV Boy and located in Plaça Joanic, depicted Yamal as Superman, with an L instead of an S on his chest.

But the work has been modified: now, next to the footballer, the seven dwarfs from Snow White appear. A provocative addition clearly referring to the birthday party.

💥 Between talent, controversy, and murals

Lamine Yamal continues to make headlines, both on and off the pitch. The vandalized mural is just the latest chapter in a story that combines sports, art, and social issues.

In the meantime, in Barcelona, Superman has new adventure companions... perhaps not requested.
