However, Relevo claimed that the father of Spain's 17-year-old prodigy was already back at home and recovering.
He is said to have been discharged from hospital following the knife attack with police on the scene of the crime to investigate.
The Catalonia police force, Mossos, have taken over the case and are said to have already spoken to several witnesses.
They have also reportedly made arrests of the alleged perpetrators of the attack on Nasraoui.
The attack comes just weeks after Yamal helped lead Spain to winning the 2024 European Championship.
Yamal and co broke English hearts in the Euros final last month with Spain winning 2-1.
The teenage sensation was named in the team of the tournament as well as the Young Player of the Tournament.
He also won the Goal of the Tournament for his sensational strike against France in the semi-final.

Yamal became the youngest player in the history of the European Championships to appear in and win the competition.
His rise to superstardom at such a young age has seen Yamal likened to Barcelona and Argentina icon Lionel Messi.
But Marc-Andre ter Stegen wants to see the teenager keep his feet on the ground amid all the praise he's receiving.

“We have to give credit to [former head coach] Xavi, who is the one who gave him the opportunity," he said.
"There's something special about him. I hope he keeps his feet on the ground, that he doesn't listen to the praise and thinks about the moment, that he continues to work for the team.
"He still has room for improvement, he is very young, he is just starting. He has also grown physically. Lamine knows that he can count on me for anything he needs.”
