The child prodigy remains: FC Barcelona has bound super talent Lamine Yamal in the long term. The European champion signed a new contract with the association of coach Hansi Flick until 2031.
The original working paper of the 17 -year -old exceptional cloak would have expired in June 2026. According to media reports, Yamal is supposed to rise to the top earner with the Spanish football champion. Its market value is estimated at 180 million euros.
Yamal is thus in the top spheres of world football – together with Erling Haaland (Manchester City) as well as Kylian Mbappé and Jude Bellingham (both Real Madrid).
Since the age of 5 at Barcelona
The offensive player will celebrate his 18th birthday next July. Yamal 2023 signed his previous contract with Barça. At that time, at the age of 15, only an extension over three years was possible. The left foot already played for the Catalans as a five -year -old and then went through all youth departments.
In 106 competitive games, Yamal scored 25 goals and presented 34 more. In the summer of 2024 he became a European champion as a regular player and top performer with Spain in Berlin. The now 19-time international was used in all European Championship games and achieved the important balance in the semifinals against France (2-1).
