Inter star Thuram deletes Instagram story mocking Yamal

MILAN, ITALY – MAY 06: Lamine Yamal of FC Barcelona is consoled by Marcus Thuram of FC Internazionale after the final whistle of the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Semi Final Second Leg match between FC Internazionale Milano and FC Barcelona at Giuseppe Meazza Stadium on May 06, 2025 in Milan, Italy.

Inter striker Marcus Thuram deleted an Instagram story where he trolled Barcelona star Lamine Yamal after an epic 4-3 win over the Blaugrana at San Siro.

Inter star Thuram trolled Barcelona ace Yamal on Instagram, and although he quickly removed the picture, it quickly went viral on social media, including X.

Thuram immediately consoled the Spain international after last night’s fixture, but, as Sport Mediaset reported, he showed an entirely different attitude on social media on Wednesday morning.

In fact, the Frenchman posted a picture of himself embracing Yamal on the San Siro turf after the final whistle, writing, “On a mission ehh!!” and adding two emojis crying with laughter.

Thuram’s reference was to a social media post Yamal shared before the semifinals against Inter, in which he had simply written: “On a mission.”

The Inter striker acknowledged his mistake, not only by deleting the Instagram story but also by adding a new one in which he once again showed his hug to Yamal and wrote: “Greatness recognises greatness.”

Inter vs Barcelona reactions

“We must compliment Barcelona too, because they are truly a strong opponent,” Inzaghi told Sky Sport Italia.

“It required a super Inter, so I praise my lads for putting in two incredible performances over the two legs. It was the only way to reach the Final, I am so proud to be their coach, as they gave it everything and those who came off the bench had the right attitude too.

“They should enjoy every moment in front of these fans, we are truly happy. They were exemplary. I told the players to believe, that we could try to limit Barcelona, even though it wasn’t easy to do. We had Lautaro, Dumfries and Frattesi who were not 100 per cent fit, so we had to use our hearts to push through every obstacle.”
