Barcelona defender Íñigo Martínez has been filmed arguing with a young football fan in the middle of the street.
The 32-year-old man was driving his black Range Rover when he stopped and went out into the street to confront the boy, as captured in footage shared on X (formerly Twitter).
The centre-back, dressed in a white t-shirt and shorts, approached the young fan and they gathered together, before the Barcelona player unleashed a furious speech, raising his voice and pointing in frustration after the young man’s actions.
According to The Sun, Martinez reportedly said, “This is the last time you call me stupid or insult me, the last time you and your friend insult me.”
It’s unclear what sparked the incident, but there didn’t appear to be any physical contact during the brief interaction, which lasted about 20 seconds, before the hooded boy was taken away and Martinez returned to his car.

Online reports suggested that the youngster had previously been involved in several altercations with Barcelona fans and was reportedly seen wearing a Real Madrid kit during the Gavi presentation.
Spanish international defender Martínez came through Real Sociedad’s youth system, before becoming the team’s senior professional until 2018.
That year, he moved to Athletic Bilbao, where he played for five years before his contract expired, and transferred to Barcelona as a free agent, signing a two-year contract.
Martínez joined Barcelona as a free agent last summer and has played 19 games so far.
To date he had made 19 appearances for the Catalan giants, starting in the 1-0 win over Las Palmas on Saturday night.
While the domestic league takes a break next weekend for the Spanish Cup final, Barcelona’s next game will be its Champions League quarterfinal away match against PSG on April 10.
