Mounir Nasraoui has committed yet another unacceptable act. Lamine Yamal's father, before attending the Ballon d'Or ceremony, where his son came in third, became the protagonist of a serious incident at the airport, which ended without consequences for him, at least for the moment. The 40-year-old man of Moroccan origin reacted horribly to a waitress, going so far as to spit in her face. Knowing the character, this is not surprising, since excess seems to be one of his main characteristics.
According to El Español, it is a type of incident called "jacket-gate", as Nasraoui was in a bar inside the terminal, where he had placed his jacket in an area where this was not allowed. This violation prompted a cafe employee to intervene, asking the man to move the jacket. But the situation took a bad turn and a violent confrontation broke out, where the father of the Barcelona and Spanish champion reacted badly. After a very tense argument, he went so far as to spit in the woman's face, while it is suspected that he had also seriously insulted her.
Moments of tension at the airport, with the intervention of Guardia Civil officers and several bystanders, who tried to intervene to calm the situation between the people involved and some eyewitnesses. The situation became explosive and Nasraoui reacted badly, trying to throw a chair at them, while also shouting threats. In short, it was a kind of fight that was prevented precisely by the local police, who calmed the bloodshed. After a few minutes of tension, the situation calmed down and the 40-year-old boarded the plane that took him to London.
Once again, Lamine Yamal's father has managed to attract attention for reasons that are not entirely commendable. In addition to excessive interference on social networks and beyond, there have also been incidents involving public order. The best-known and most disturbing case dates back to August 2024, when he was seriously injured with a knife in a parking lot in the Rocafonda neighborhood, in Mataró. It was a settling of scores, which came after a previous fight in the neighborhood, which had led to the arrest of several people. Even before that, in May 2023, the former construction worker had been convicted of a misdemeanor for insulting, hitting and destroying materials from a Vox party electoral kiosk. In short, he is not lacking in anything.
Popularity sometimes brings problems and, without a doubt, fatherhood is not exactly the best calling card for young Lamine, who has to deal with a very conspicuous presence. Perhaps he would do well to restrain himself and not overdo it, so as not to put one of the best footballers on the international scene in a bad light.
