Lamine Yamal is under contract until 2026, but that number comes with an asterisk. It seems that an agreement has been reached for him to renew his contract with FC Barcelona as soon as he reaches the civil majorityand his 18 years will allow him to benefit from an employment contract different from the one currently in force. His agent, Jorge Mendes, revealed some details about this future consensus: he could not say if he will sign immediately, but he will sign in the very long term.
Taking advantage of the ‘Globe Soccer Awards’ gala, which he himself promotes, he told ‘Mundo Deportivo’: “Barça fans can be sure that the best young player in the world and the best player in the world for the next few years will sign for Barça. I don’t know when, but it will happen, at any time.” “Will he do it as soon as he turns 18? I don’t know, but it will happen,” he replied.
Asked about another of his clients, Ansu Fatihe analyzed: “ITwo years ago he was on top of the world and he had no luck. I hope that soon he will be able to overcome all these adversities, which he will surely do because he is a great player, and that he will return to his level again.. He’s a great player who, unfortunately, was punished by injuries, but he’s a player who won the hearts of Barça fans.”
Asked if he sees him leaving Barça this winter to seek playing time, he replied: “These are questions for Barça. Barça knows better than anyone what their plans are and what they think. coach. In the world of football, everything changes very quickly. We have to wait and see. He showed that he had the courage to play for Barça and that he had an impressive level. What Ansu needs is confidence and to solve his problems. And when he reaches his best level, Barça will need him.”
Alejandro Balde is also part of his portfolio: “Before renewing his contract with Barça, the best clubs in Europe wanted him and Barça knew it, so there is no doubt for anyone. They knew that Barca were in a difficult situation and that they could take advantage of it, but Barca made the right decision not to sell him despite large offers. As far as players in his position go, he’s also number one.”
