This week, Forbes has revealed its ranking of the highest paid footballers on the planet. Lamine Yamal appears in the Top 10 for the first time.

Over the year 2025, the Spanish international has accumulated 37 million euros. An amount relatively far from Cristiano Ronaldo's earnings (239 million euros over the same period), but which should grow exponentially.

Especially since all means – or almost – are good to increase the fortune of the FC Barcelona prodigy. Indeed, according to
Mundo Deportivothe Blaugrana number 10 should soon market his autographs through a site specializing in the sale of celebrity merchandise.

Lamine Yamal, in the footsteps of LeBron James

Currently, Lamine Yamal no longer makes any signings at the end of his training sessions open to the public. An instruction which would have been directly given to him by the company in question. Rather rare in the world of football, this marketing of star autographs is already quite widespread in the United States. For example, LeBron James' signature on a poster can sell for up to $7,000.

At the beginning of the month, it was Lamine Yamal's mother who made headlines for a form of controversial business. Sheila Ebana offers to have dinner with her in London, for prices ranging from 150 to 360 euros.
