The 18-year-old winger, currently recovering from a groin injury, swapped the treatment room for the skies as he jetted off to Croatia with his girlfriend for some downtime.

Nicki, 25, shared clips of the couple’s scenic flight on Instagram  showing the pair laughing, holding hands, and taking in the stunning coastline views. Yamal cheekily joked that the singer “got dizzy” during the flight, a playful comment that sent fans into hysterics.

In one moment that didn’t escape eagle-eyed followers, Nicki was seen clutching what looked like a motion-sickness bag  sparking a wave of light-hearted memes across social media.

Yamal has been sidelined from Spain duty on medical advice as Barcelona carefully manages his recovery. Sources inside the club say coach Hansi Flick is hopeful the teenager will be fit to face Girona on October 18, but won’t take any risks with one of the team’s brightest prospects.

Despite his absence from the pitch, Yamal appears to be in good spirits sharing selfies, jokes, and clips of his adventures with Nicki as fans continue to gush over the young couple.

Nicki Nicole, who recently performed in front of more than 250,000 fans in her hometown of Rosario, Argentina, is riding high both professionally and personally. The singer thanked her supporters for their love, declaring on stage: “I’m so proud to have been born here.”

The pair went public with their relationship in September, confirming what fans had long suspected. Since then, they’ve become one of the most talked-about celebrity pairings in both football and Latin pop circles.

Their latest getaway only added fuel to the spotlight. But for now, while Yamal’s teammates prepare for the return of club football, the young forward seems to be enjoying the view  both from above Croatia’s coastline and from the top of the gossip charts.
