Lamine Yamal Set to Sign Long-Term Contract with FC Barcelona

Barcelona’s prodigious talent, Lamine Yamal, is poised to commit his future to the club by signing a new long-term contract. The agreement, finalized with his agent Jorge Mendes, will extend Yamal’s stay at Camp Nou until June 2031.

Currently 17 years old, Yamal’s existing contract is limited by FIFA regulations for underage players. However, upon turning 18 on July 13, he will be eligible to sign a full professional contract. The new deal reflects his rapid ascent within the team and his growing importance to Barcelona’s future plans.

Agent Jorge Mendes has been instrumental in securing the agreement, emphasizing Yamal’s commitment to the club. Mendes stated, “Of course he’s going to renew, there won’t be any problem. He’s happy. He’ll renew soon, don’t worry.”

The contract is expected to include a significant salary increase, aligning with Yamal’s contributions on the field and his status as one of the team’s key players. Barcelona views Yamal as a cornerstone for their future, aiming to build a competitive squad around his talents.

An official announcement is anticipated shortly after Yamal’s 18th birthday, solidifying his place in Barcelona’s long-term vision.
