Lamine Yamal's father has announced his engagement to a woman just five years older than his 18-year-old Barcelona star son. Mounir Nasraoui, 35, has been dating a 23-year-old called Khristina but it appears they have taken their relationship to the next level with this engagement. That means the Spanish teenager could have a very young new stepmother.

While his dad's love life appears to be going well, the teenager has just split up from Argentinian singer Nicki Nicole - who is two years older than Nasraoui's partner. The pair went official in the summer but now they have parted ways. Incidentally, Yamal's mother, Sheila Ebana, has been separated from Nasraoui since 2010.
