Lamine Yamal finished runner-up in the 2025 Ballon d'Or
Lamine Yamal said the racist chants during Spain's 0-0 draw with Egypt in Barcelona on Tuesday were "disrespectful and intolerable".
Police in Spain are investigating "Islamophobic and xenophobic" chants heard during the first half of the friendly at RCDE Stadium in Barcelona.
At half-time a message warning fans against xenophobic remarks and singing was displayed on the screen at the stadium - the message was repeated early in the second half, leading to whistles from some sections of the crowd.
"I know it [the chant] was directed at the opposing team and wasn't personal against me, but as a Muslim, it's still disrespectful and intolerable," Spain winger Lamine Yamal, who is a practising Muslim, wrote on Instagram.
