Four suspects have been arrested in connection with a knife attack on the father of Spanish teen soccer sensation Lamine Yamal, the Catalan police press office told CNN Thursday. Mounir Nasraoui, the father of the 17-year-old Barcelona star, was hospitalized and in serious condition Wednesday after suffering two stab wounds, according to Catalan regional police. In a statement on Instagram on Thursday, Nasraoui said he was “feeling better” and thanked everyone for their messages of support. The attack occurred in a parking lot in the city of Mataró, near Barcelona, where Yamal’s father lives, following an argument between Nasraoui and some other men, who also live in that neighborhood, according to police. Local police from Mataró broke up the earlier fight, and video from that incident showed Yamal’s father wearing a jersey with his son’s name on it. Police tell CNN that the suspects have no prior police record. Three were arrested late Wednesday, a few hours after the attack, and a fourth was arrested Thursday.
