The rumor is out there and it's not new. It started spreading last season.
It has to do with the poor chemistry that governs the relationship between two of Hansi Flick's top starters.
They don't look for each other find each other only when necessary. Off the field they barely interact and on the field they interact for the sake of the team. However, there's no special bond that unites them.
It is surprising because, due to their positions on the field, they are destined to understand each other. The good thing about the case is that they understand each other wonderfully in their professional facet.
There are no differences that matter and they pass the ball without looking at whom they give it.
Fights in the Middle of the Game That are Now History
This is about Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal. The relationship between them is correct, professional—as colleagues but not as friends.
A problem of jealousy, says Don Balón. Although it's closer to a lack of chemistry between the two. There's no feeling between the two.
Lamine Yamal is not the only one who doesn't connect with his Polish teammate. There are others. Last season we already saw scenes on the field with Lewandowski publicly scolding the 16-year-old.
Lamine is only 17 now, but he is already a soccering figure. He is even more valued than Lewandowski today and he no longer accepts public quarrels. They are over.
Colleagues, Not Friends: They Respect but Don't Like Each Other
They neither look for nor find each other. However, Lamine lives his passion and profession in such a way that he is capable of discovering the best move for Lewandowski to turn it into a goal.
Still, Lamine no longer jumps onto the field to look for Lewandowski, as Xavi used to order. Now he looks for all his teammates.
That's it. They are colleagues who respect each other, not friends who like each other.
It is a normal thing for a group of 25 footballers working together, among whom there are similarities and differences in character. Lamine has his friends and so does Lewandowski. But nobody will see them on the street having a beer together.
