Following their divorce, Lamine went on to live with his mother in La Torreta for a while.
His mother was working for a fast food chain when she met Inocente Diez, a local footballer who encouraged her to sign up Lamine in the club where he was the coordinator.

He played for Spain in 2023 for the 2024 Euros qualifiers against Georgia and Cyprus.
He made his debut for Spain against Georgia in September 2023 and became the youngest player and goal scorer for Spain at the age of 16 and 57 days after scoring in the 74th minute of a 7-1 victory.
He broke the record of Gavi, who debuted at 17 years and 62 days.
He responded to a distasteful comment about his son
Back in April 2024, former goalkeeper and Movistar plus pundit German Burgos made a disgraceful comment about Yamal ahead of Barca's game against PSG.
His performance did not go well, as he was juggling the ball along the touchline. Burgos took a dig at him on air.
He said if he didn't do well, he would end up in a traffic light".
Following his comment, both Barcelona and PSG players refused to give post-match interviews to the Spanish channel.
Nasraoui also responded to his comment about his son seeking justice via his Instagram, "Good morning world, I just ask you to respect other people's children. Thanks",
Both Movistar and Burgos later apologized publicly.
Burgos clarified, saying the comment was made without the intention of hurting anyone and that he apologize publicly if anyone felt offended.
His son is compared to Messi
Lamine is a prodigy. His impressive performances since his arrival have made him a star.
He was even compared to a football legend after his outstanding goal against Athletic Bilbao in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals in January becoming the youngest goalscorer in the competition’s history.
When asked about how he feels being compared to Messi, he said that it’s a comparison, so he leaves it to others.
Having said that, he added that there will never be another player like Leo Messi.
He is also the youngest goalscorer for Barcelona and the youngest in history to score in La Liga, breaking both the records set by Ansu Fati and Fabrice Olinga.
He is also the youngest player to feature for Barcelona since Ansu Fati, the youngest player to score in Supercopa, the youngest player to score in La Liga to score a brace, and the youngest player to play in the Champions League to play in the knockout phase.
