Once Barcelona felt threatened regarding Lamine Yamal and his stay at Camp Nou, the club – even though overwhelmed with financial troubles – rewarded and, at the same time, tied its wonderkid with a new contract until 2026 and a release clause of a billion euros. However, it’s not enough anymore.The contract needs to be modified, and they are aware of that at Barca. Although still a teenager, Yamal is no longer only a club prospect and a great talent but already a key player, supposed to stay the same in the future. Still, many sides would be eager to steal the 17-year-old. That’s why, according to Marca, as soon as he turns 18, Yamal will sign a new contract with Blaugrana until 2030!📑🇪🇸 Lamine Yamal current contract with #FCBarcelona expires in 2026.No issue due to when Lamine turns 18 triggers extension until 2030.#FCB not worried about Pedri as well whose contract expires in 2026.Deco working on new contract. pic.twitter.com/6c8yBqFMqJ— Transfer Daily (@Transfer1_Daily) September 13, 2024 The winger delighted everyone when representing Spain at EURO 2024, ultimately becoming the European Champion with La Furia. He transferred that form into Barca’s jersey and has scored three goals and five assists in five matches under Hansi Flick. Despite his age, he became a player Barcelona can rely on.Nevertheless, the financial aspect has to be improved. Yamal currently earns €1.5 million annually – a nice amount but not proportional to his significance and role.”More than his technical talent, Lamine Yamal is very strong from a mental point of view. That is what sets him apart from the others. He doesn’t feel the weight of representing Barca and the national team on the big stages. He would play for the best Barca teams in history,” said Barca’s sporting director Deco at the “Thinking Football” conference in his homeland.Young Yamal has just two wishes, and both prove how great he isAs per Yamal’s statements, he would not mind staying at Camp Nou for a long time.”I hope I never leave Barcelona, I want to be a legend at Barca,” Yamal claimed in the show El Hormiguero on Antena 3 television.However, the other clubs are waiting for a chance and are already trying to change the player’s mind. Above all, Paris Saint-Germain, which allegedly already offered €250 million for the Spaniard, and the bid was, of course, rejected. Still, should Yamal renew his deal with his boyhood club, all the other interested parties would have to back off and give up on him.LA LIGA – MATCHDAY 5Friday Betis – Leganes 2-0 (0-0)/Ezzalzouli 74, Roque 86/Saturday Mallorca – Villarreal 1-2 (0-1)/Albiol 57 og – Costa 27, Perez 90+4/Espanyol – Alaves 3-2 (1-1)/Puado 21, 56, 63 pen – Conechny 35, Tenaglia 68/Sevilla – Getafe 1-0 (1-0)/Navas 23/Real Sociedad – Real Madrid 0-2 (0-0)/Vinicius Jr 58 pen, Mbappe 75 pen/Sunday Celta – Valladolid 3-1 (2-0)/Alvarez 22, Iglesias 35, Douvikas 90+1 – Moro 50/Girona – Barcelona 1-4 (0-2)/Stuani 80 – Yamal 30, 37, Olmo 47, Pedri 64/Las Palmas – Ath.Bilbao 2-3 (0-2)/Ramirez S. 58, Munoz 83 – Sancet 7, Williams N. 30, Paredes 76/Atl.Madrid – Valencia 3-0 (1-0)/Gallagher 39, Griezmann 54, Alvarez 90+4/Monday 22.00: (2.25) Rayo Vallecano (3.20) Osasuna (3.70)***odds are subject to change***
