Lamine Yamal and Nicki Nicole take a romantic getaway to Monaco

BarcelonaFurther proof confirms one of this summer's star couples. FC Barcelona footballer Lamine Yamal and Argentine singer Nicki Nicole escaped together to spend a few days in Monaco, after she watched Yamal lead the Catalan team to a two-goal victory at the Gamper Stadium. The couple spent a few days vacationing together at a luxurious hotel in the French Riviera, where they also took the opportunity to enjoy the sea on a huge boat.

The Maybourne Riviera was the five-star establishment chosen by the footballer and the rapper, as explained by journalist Javi Hoyos on TikTok. As can be read in the hotel's description on the Booking platform, it's a place where you can discover "how the stars feel with the best service." However, room rates start at €2,700 per night for a weekend in August. In the case of the suite chosen by Yamal and Nicole, with a single king-size bed and a private pool – the kind infinity pool–, the bill has risen to at least 10,000 euros a night, although the hotel has even more expensive rooms.

All this comes after the couple was spotted kissing at a beach disco at the end of July. In addition, Nicole was one of the guests at the controversial party Yamal's eighteenth birthday party, held on July 13th at a mansion in Garraf with a theme inspired by the Italian mafia and in which he was accused of hiring people with dwarfism.

Nicki Nicole, real name Nicole Denise Cucco, is one of the most recognized urban artists on the Argentine music scene. She has collaborated with figures such as Bizarrap, Duki and Rauw Alejandro and has been nominated for the Latin Grammys twice. In addition to the alleged kiss, other details have been detected that fuel the rumors, such as a photograph published by Yamal the same day of the meeting, in which a lipstick mark can be seen on his cheek - he attributed it to his mother, but some users on social networks suggest it could be hers.

At the moment, neither of the two protagonists has publicly confirmed or denied the rumors, and there are no official statements that prove a romantic relationship. However, the meeting between the 18-year-old Barça player and the 24-year-old singer has attracted media attention.

During the summer of 2024, the player was linked to the young woman influencer Álex Padilla, with whom he celebrated the Euro 2024 final in Berlin. They were photographed together on the field with the champions' trophy, and Yamal dedicated the award to him. Padilla attended several matches with the footballer's family and was part of the small group of people Yamal followed on his official TikTok account. Despite the media hype, neither of them ever confirmed their relationship, and over the months, the relationship faded without any formal announcement.
