Barça Is Forging a Great Union on Its Right Wing Between Jules Koundé and Lamine Yamal. This can be seen both on and off the field, maintaining a perfect relationship. However, in recent months it seems to have become a bit strained, albeit jokingly, over a specific issue: the Kings League.
The Kings League, a competition created by Piqué, will announce on March 31 what Lamine Yamal's new team will be. This has been a topic of conversation in Barça's locker room, where this matter has been much discussed. In this regard, it seems that the forward doesn't stop bragging about it and has forced Jules Koundé to take action.
Jules Koundé Gets Fed Up with Lamine Yamal and Requests a Team in the Kings League
The story was explained by Oriol Querol, CEO of the Kings League and Piqué's main partner in this venture. In statements to Què T'hi Jugues, he said that Jules Koundé will soon have a team in the competition that will debut in his native France, sharing the presidency with Tchouaméni from Real Madrid.
"It's their idea, they share an agency. Barça and Madrid are together, on top of that, by surprise. It's Jules Koundé's idea: on March 31 we announce all the details of Lamine Yamal's team. What he tells us is: 'I'm tired of hearing this kid in the locker room talking about this, I want to too'," indicated Oriol Querol.
Meanwhile, he concluded: "It just so happens that we are working on opening a league in France and everything fits very quickly. It was perfect for us and it's very cool to have the headline of two presidents from FC Barcelona and Madrid."
Lamine Yamal, the Most Media-Savvy President of the Kings League
Since its creation a few years ago in Spain, the truth is that the Kings League hasn't stopped growing. It has created leagues in America, Italy, Brazil, and now those in France and the United States are underway. In France, Jules Koundé will have his team, joined in the presidency by Tchouaméni (Real Madrid) and Maignan (Milan).
The main question now is what will happen with Lamine Yamal's team. There is a lot of speculation, and it seems that it could be in Spain. Asked about his involvement with the created club, Oriol Querol pointed out: "He'll do whatever he wants, we'll make it easy for him. He's very involved."
After much discussion in Barcelona's locker room, in the end, there will already be two players with teams in the Kings League: Lamine Yamal and Koundé. Will there be more in the future?
