Lamine Yamal to be offered SUPER CONTRACT by Barcelona

His contract will be improved for this season and when he turns 18 in July he will be tied down until 2030

Lamine Yamal’s progress since his debut with Barcelona has been spectacular. The young Barça player is progressing at breakneck speed , both at his current club and with the national team with which he won the European Championship last summer. This Sunday’s match in Girona was another example of what he is capable of. His numbers this season (three goals and four assists) are those of a true star.

Barcelona are clear about this and also that his contract, despite being only 17 years old, has already become outdated. And that is despite the fact that the signing of his new contract took place just under a year ago, specifically on October 2, 2023. Since then, Lamine has become Barcelona’s reference player.

First action: immediate improvement

For this reason, the club already has a clear roadmap to follow with the player. Throughout the current season, the club will improve its financial conditions because he is now earning around one and a half million euros a year. It is true that for the objectives he achieved last season he has received a bonus from the club, but his salary is still very out of date with respect to the quality of the player.

Second action: new contract

That is why the club, and also his agent Jorge Mendes, are clear that this improvement must take place. But not only that. In these negotiations to raise his salary this season, the foundations for the extension of his contract will also begin to be laid. All this has already been discussed by both parties. The idea, and this is something that was already discussed in the previous renewal, is that he signs a professional contract when he turns 18 until 2030. And with economic conditions in line with the value of the footballer and the performance he is offering. In other words, a crack salary.

PSG’s interest

It should not be forgotten that last season, as MARCA reported, PSG were willing to pay 200 million euros for the transfer of the player . That amount even increased at the end of the season. However, Barcelona are very clear that they will not listen to offers for their star player. This is what they told the French club.

The idea of ​​the Barça sports management is to build a great team for the future with this generation of footballers who are leaving La Masía and who will have Lamine Yamal as a reference. They want to protect the footballer and then do the same with others such as Cubarsí, Fermín or Gavi himself.
