In recent days, social media has been buzzing with rumors that Argentine rapper Nicki Nicole had broken up with Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal only 13 days after their relationship was first reported.
Several online outlets even suggested that the 25-year-old artist had already found a new partner: Real Madrid’s latest signing, Franco Mastantuono, the 18-year-old talent who joined the Spanish giants this summer from River Plate.
However, these claims appear to be baseless. Argentine media have pointed out that Mastantuono has been in a long-term relationship with Fio Augustinelli, making the idea of a sudden romance with Nicki Nicole highly unlikely.
Neither Yamal, Mastantuono, nor Nicki Nicole have commented on the matter. Yamal’s father, Mounir Nasraoui, brushed off the speculation, calling it “childish things” and clarifying that he doesn’t even know who Mastantuono is.
It is therefore safe to say that the rumors of a love triangle involving Barcelona, Real Madrid, and one of Latin music’s biggest stars are nothing more than online gossip.
Meanwhile, Nicki Nicole — whose real name is Nicole Denise Cucco — remains focused on her flourishing career, with over 22 million Instagram followers and nearly 18 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
