Nicki Nicole now linked with Real Madrid starlet just weeks after sharing intimate moment with Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal

Last Updated on 5 September 2025

Rumours flying around South America suggest Nicki Nicole’s whirlwind romance with Barca prodigy Lamine Yamal may have ended almost as quickly as it began.

Previously, the famous rapper from South America had been rumored to be dating Barca’s prodigy, Lamine Yamal.

However, reports emerging from Argentina have revealed a new love interest on the block for Nicki after she allegedly moved on from Lamine Yamal.

According to The Sun, there are rumours that Nicki Nicole has already swapped lovers, and is now dating Real Madrid youngster Franco Mastantuono.

That alone would have been enough to stoke comparisons between Yamal and Mastantuono but Nicole’s alleged switch has poured more fuel on the fire.

To make matters a lot more interesting, Mastantuono, like Nicole, is Argentine.

So, it’s not too far a stretch to consider the possibility of these two linking up but there haven’t been any reports or confirmations from the trio.

They haven’t made any comments on the situation with Nicki’s focus being on her music career. Mastantuono, meanwhile, adjusts to life in Spain with Real Madrid, and that’s no easy task, either.

Yamal’s performances for Barcelona paint a different picture, though. He’s been on fire and has picked up where he left off last season, scoring and assisting for fun in the opening games of the new campaign.

Barcelona’s new no.10 burst onto the scene as a 16-year-old in the 2023/24 season, making 37 appearances in La Liga.

He hit a new stride last season, helping Spain win the Euro 2024 and, then, winning La Liga with the Catalan club.

But as far as his fame is concerned, it’s not limited only to the football pitch. Lamine’s shown a knack for controversies off the pitch, too.

His 18th birthday in mid-July was extremely wild to say the least. So much so, that the Spanish government planned to ‘probe into the birthday party’, as per ESPN.

But the teenager also has a very colorful dating history, covered by Italian publication, Gazzetta.it. In-between alleged dates with fellow teenagers, Alex Padilla and Anna Gegnoso, Yamal’s also reportedly dipped into older women.

The young sensation’s alleged fling with a 30-year-old flight attendant, Fati Vasquez, was one of the stories that dominated the summer.
