Barcelona wants to keep Yamal until 2031: new contract on the horizon

Catalonia’s famous club “Barcelona” is on the verge of signing a long-term contract with one of the youngest and most promising talents in its history — Lamine Yamal. The 17-year-old forward, who has drawn attention in European and world football with his brilliant performances, has convinced the club’s management that his future should be built at “Camp Nou.”

According to well-known insider Fabrizio Romano, Yamal and his agent Jorge Mendes will meet today with Barcelona’s management to officially sign a new contract valid until 2031. This agreement will further strengthen the young forward’s relationship with the club, based on trust and loyalty.

This current season has served as a launchpad for Lamine Yamal. He has played in 55 matches across all competitions, scoring 18 goals and providing 25 assists. These numbers highlight not only his extraordinary potential for his age but also his quality as a professional footballer.

His current contract with Barcelona is valid until the summer of 2026. However, the club plans to extend it for six more years as it aims to build a new project around Yamal and sees him as a future star of Barça.

According to Transfermarkt, Yamal’s market value has reached €180 million. This makes him one of the most expensive young forwards not only in Spain but in world football. That’s why Barcelona is already taking serious steps to retain him.

Thus, a new era is beginning in the history of the “blaugrana” club. Yamal’s long-term future with the club opens up new hopes not only for fans but for Spanish football as a whole.
