Has Lamine Yamal's ex successfully found a new 'golden child'?

Nicki Nicole, the ex-partner of Lamine Yamal, is said to be involved romantically with a well-known Argentine celebrity.

The relationship between Nicki Nicole and Lamine Yamal has officially entered a “breakup” phase. However, the story did not end there, as right after the breakup news spread, rumors about a “third party” interfering between the Rosario singer and the young Barcelona star quickly erupted.

It all started from a message circulating within Buenos Aires’ entertainment circle, later shared by journalist Angel de Brito on social media: “A friend told me that last night she saw Nicki leaving with Mernuel, one of the most famous YouTubers currently. They stayed together all night and left the place together.” According to this information, the meeting took place at the Picheo nightclub in the capital and quickly became a hot topic on social media.

For those closely following, this rumor didn’t just appear out of nowhere. A few days earlier, Nicki Nicole unexpectedly joined Yanina Latorre’s livestream, where Mernuel was also present. Her appearance sparked speculation about their relationship, and suspicions grew when they were spotted leaving the nightclub together at dawn.

Meanwhile, Lamine Yamal broke his silence and confirmed the breakup. In an interview with journalist Javier de Hoyos, the young Barcelona player stated: “There was no betrayal. We simply broke up. I did not cheat on her nor was I involved with anyone else.” 

The romance between Nicki Nicole and Lamine Yamal began at the end of August, when the singer posted a birthday greeting for the Spanish forward. Since then, they frequently appeared together on social media, traveling and enjoying happy moments in cities like Barcelona, Rosario, and Milan.

However, in recent weeks, breakup rumors have spread gradually. Some believe Yamal’s recent trip to Milan, where he gathered with friends, might be the cause of the relationship's strain. Others think the two simply grew apart over time. Nevertheless, Yamal insists there was no “third party” involved.

Amid the public buzz, the name Mernuel started to gain attention. The 2001-born YouTuber (one year younger than Nicki Nicole) is famous for live streams and a strong social media presence. Mernuel was seen accompanying Nicki Nicole at a nightclub in Buenos Aires, alongside Cazzu and Emilia.

The images and social media posts only strengthened public belief in the possibility of a budding new romance. So far, there has been no official confirmation—only scattered messages, vague comments, and ongoing online speculation.
