Is Lamine Yamal’s younger brother supporting Messi and Argentina in the World Cup final?
Just hours before
Lamine Yamal plays the 2026 World Cup final with Spain against Argentina
, a video of his younger brother Keyne began circulating on social media and sparked a surprising question among fans: is he supporting Lionel Messi and the Argentine national team?
The reason behind that speculation was a detail that quickly caught attention. In the video,
the young boy appears with blue-dyed hair and a matching sports outfit, a coincidence that led many users to associate his look with Argentina’s colors
ahead of the biggest match of the tournament.
But is his support actually real?
Although the post gained attention in recent hours, the video was not recorded before the World Cup final.
The original images were shared in May 2026 by the Yamal family’s barber
. However, there is no confirmation that the young boy chose that style as a way to support Argentina.
What has been clear throughout the tournament is the affection and support he has shown for his brother Lamine Yamal, whom he has followed from the stands and watched
with excitement during several of his World Cup matches.

For now, fans will have to wait to find out who will become the champion and lift the trophy. The final will bring an end to a tournament that surprised everyone with the stories, matches and unforgettable moments it created on the field,
while also becoming a historic edition after being hosted across three countries: the United States, Mexico and Canada
. Away from the action, the final chapter will also feature a halftime show with artists such as
Shakira, Justin Bieber, Madonna and BTS at the New Jersey stadium in the New York metropolitan area
