This market will resolve to "Yes" if Lamine Yamal Nasraoui Ebana takes the field as a player in at least one official match for Spain during the 2026 FIFA World Cup at the group stage or later. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Any on-field appearance as a player will qualify, in regulation, stoppage time, extra time, for a shootout, etc. If the 2026 FIFA World Cup is cancelled, postponed after August 2, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or there is no confirmation Lamine Yamal took the field during the competition within that timeframe, the corresponding market will “No”. The primary resolution source for this market will be information from FIFA (https://www.fifa.com/), however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Lamine Yamal’s strong recovery trajectory from a late-April hamstring injury sustains the overwhelming 97.8% implied probability that he will feature for Spain at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Barcelona confirmed he avoided surgery and follows a conservative rehabilitation plan that has already progressed to grass sessions and gym work, with club and national-team medical staff projecting full availability by mid-June. The five-to-eight-week timeline aligns with the tournament start, allowing Spain coach Luis de la Fuente to include the 18-year-old winger in the squad despite possible load management that could sideline him for the opening group match. A relapse or overly cautious approach remains the primary downside risk that could still alter his participation.
