This has been the sensation of world football since the start of the season. With FC Barcelona, Lamine Yamal surprises everyone and is a very regular starter under the aegis of Xavi. And at just 16 years old, the versatile striker has already been capped by Spain. Obviously, to keep its crack as long as possible, Barça is already actively working on its extension.
And according to information from the Catalan press, his contract extension should be made official this Monday. Thus, Yamal will be under contract until 2026 which is the legal maximum for a player of his age. However, a tacit agreement would exist between Barcelona management and the player’s entourage for an extension until 2030 as soon as he reaches the age of majority with a salary increase also to be expected. In the meantime, his release clause should be set at 1 billion euros.
