Yamal is undoubtedly the breakout youngster of the recently concluded club football season, and it’s always challenging for a wunderkind to shine at a big side like Barcelona. His performances have ensured him a place in Spain’s squads in the Euros, and the youngster could even get a spot in the starting lineup. He has finally been added to the Spanish squad, and you can access him in the EA FC 24 Euro 2024 mode.

Is Lamine Yamal in EA FC 24 Euro 2024 mode?

The Euro 2024 is a dedicated game mode in EA FC 24 that allows players to recreate their own versions of the tournament. While EA Sports has included all the updated squads, Lamine Yamal was missing from initially from Spain’s squad. As of June 16, he seems to have been finally added to the database.

Why was Lamine Yamal absent in EA FC 24?

Usually, EA Sports only includes footballers who are 17 years or older when the database is created. As of this writing, Yamal is still 16, which will change on July 13 of this year. This is the main reason why EA Sports did not include him in Spain’s squad in the Euro 2024 mode. Yamal is also absent from other modes like Ultimate Team.

However, the Spanish wunderkind is now available for selection if you pick Spain as your go-to nation in the Euro 2024 mode. However, he’s still absent from Ultimate Team mode, which is likely going to be the case in the future. If EA Sports decides to introduce his card as part of a promo, it will be a great moment for the entire community.
