Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
Last summer, PSG were cited as one of the contenders for the signing of Lamine Yamal, the young FC Barcelona phenomenon. But this is not the first time that the Parisian club has courted the Spanish international. In 2015, his former agent received a dizzying offer from the French team.
PSG very quickly spotted the rare qualities of Lamine Yamal. According to the Spanish press, the capital club already had him in its sights in 2015. Then aged 15, the attacker, who was still at the farmhouse, would have received a “dizzying” offer from the PSG.
Xavi intervened in the Yamal case
At the origin of this information, Sports World does not reveal the amount of the offer. But it had been important enough for Xavi, then coach of FC Barcelona, interferes in this matter and asks Yamal to stay in Catalonia to realize his dream, that of playing for the Barça.
A paid choice
The coach found the right words since Lamine Yamal ultimately stayed. Well he took it since the striker is, today, one of the cornerstones of the Catalan project. In the meantime, the player changed agents and entrusted his interests to Jorge Mendes, a time close to Luis Campos, current sports advisor of the PSG.
