- His previous deal would expire next summer with Yamal not yet 18
- He has already cemented himself as one of the world’s best players
- Listen now: It’s all about! Is Ruben Amorim too honest?
Lamine Yamal has signed a new contract in Barcelona that will hold him in the club until 2031.
His previous deal would expire next summer, which means that the Blaugrana offering a new deal for Yamal, which is only 17, is a priority.
Per ESPNThe deal has come with a ‘significant’ wage assignment to display the status of the winger as one of the most important players of Hansi Flick this season.
Yamal made his first team debut only 15 years old in 2023 and enjoyed a quick turnout to settle quickly as one of the best players in the world.
He helped Spain to win the euros last summer and was a crucial figure in the domestic Treble-winning side of Barca in 2024-25.
The young person achieved 18 goals and 25 assists in 55 performances in all competitions when his side reached the semi -final of the Champions League.

Reports indicate that the deal has applied a considerable payment rise
His deal would end in 2026, because he was only allowed to donate for a maximum of three years, because he was under 18 when signing his first professional contract.
However, because he turns 18 in July, he can sign a longer contract – which was completed after discussions with his agent Jorge Mendes.
Earlier this week, Mendes had met the Catalan Outfit’s Club -President Joan Laporta to iron the finer parts of the negotiations.
Laporta previously told the Catalan outlet TV3: “There is always some suffering involved,” Laporta told TV3 when asked for an update on negotiations to extend the attacker’s contract.
“It has been discussed, but it is not signed. Lamine is a great player, an extraordinary person and is already very mature.
‘There are good feelings with his representatives and with his family. His agent, Mendes, advises him well.
“It will end well. He grew up here, he is Catalan and he is a Barca fan. He is happy in Barcelona and is destined to be the best player in the world. ‘
The club’s sports director had previously noticed that the expansion of Yamal’s contract would be ‘the best signature’ the club made in years.

Reports added that Yamal wanted the problem to be resolved as quickly as possible before he left for his vacation during this summer’s low season.
That will come after his participation in the Final Four event of Nations League of June.
Yamal has already written history by becoming the youngest player who achieved 100 performances for his youth side after getting up by the ranks on their famous La Masia Academy.
The expansion of Yamal is the newest internal deal that is written by Barca, who has also expanded the contract of their manager Flick and Yamal’s colleague – Star Raphinha, with the Brazilian who has scored 34 goals and registered 25 assists in 56 performances this season.
