Fresh speculation has emerged on social media over a possible connection between wrist bandages worn by Barcelona players and alleged doping practices.
As reported by İdman.Biz, online discussions have intensified following claims about Lamine Yamal's actions after Barcelona's match against Atletico Madrid.
According to social media users, the young Spanish winger appeared to remove his wrist bandage immediately after the final whistle. Some posts have interpreted his actions as an attempt to prevent the bandage from being examined, although there is no verified evidence supporting that interpretation.
The discussions have also focused on claims that Yamal does not wear similar wrist bandages during UEFA Champions League matches. Some users have suggested that this could be linked to differences in anti-doping controls between domestic and European competitions.
Others have pointed out that the Barcelona youngster reportedly trains without wrist bandages but frequently wears tightly wrapped ones during official matches.
However, these observations do not establish any connection to prohibited substances or doping practices. Wearing wrist bandages is not, in itself, evidence of an anti-doping violation.
It is important to emphasize that all allegations circulating online remain unverified speculation. No credible evidence has been presented to suggest that Yamal or any other Barcelona player has used prohibited substances.
