After trying different sports, Thibault turned to a career as an amateur footballer. When making a choice between becoming a professional footballer and a journalist, the qualities tipped the scales to one side. Here he is now in the editorial team of 10 Sport, after a diploma obtained at the International Institute of Communication in Paris.
At 17 years old, Lamine Yamal today impresses everyone in the FC Barcelona jersey. A phenomenon that PSG would obviously have liked to recruit during the last summer transfer window. There was thus talk of an offer exceeding €200M from the capital club. Yamal ultimately did not join PSG, a club where he could have already landed a few years ago for €0 if the Spanish press is to be believed.
Under the spell of Lamine YamalPSG was ready to splurge for the crack player FC Barcelona this summer. The capital club was indeed considering an offensive worth more than €200 million for the Blaugrana. Fabrizio Romano had thus revealed: “ It was before the start of the transfer window, between April and May. What I can say and confirm is that PSG, last season, when they understood that Mbappé was going to leave for Real Madrid, really thought about making a record offer for Lamine Yamal. So more than €200M. They never sent this proposal. There was no official offer, nor even any negotiation because FC Barcelona and the player did not want to talk to any club. But PSG, internally, thought about presenting a record offer for Lamine Yamal, more than €200M. It didn't happen because Lamine Yamal is very happy at Barcelona ».
PSG had already tried a coup with Yamal
But now this is not the first time that the PSG would try to recruit Lamine Yamal. This is what revealed Sports World. To do this, we must go back to a few years ago when the prodigy of FC Barcelona was only 15 years old at the time. Very interested already at the time, the PSG would then have sent a huge offer to Ivan de la Penathe former agent of Yamal.
Yamal stays at Barcelona thanks to Xavi
As explained MDthis would then have panicked the FC Barcelona. The reason? Already considered a gem in the making, Lamine Yamal could have left for free when he turned 16. It is then that Xavicoach of the Catalan club at that time, would have taken matters into his own hands. While the two men exchanged a lot, Xavi then did not hesitate to launch Yamal in the deep end with Barça. All this also bore fruit for the Blaugrana since at the age of 16, instead of joining the PSG, Lamine Yamal signed a contract with the FC Barcelona.
