On Tuesday evening, Barcelona confirmed the good news lamine Yamal had renewed his contract until 2031 and connected his future to the club in the long term. The 17-year-old has already become one of the best players in Barcelona and is now cementing his place as the cornerstone of their project.
The deal can only come into effect until it turns 18 in July, and there were no photos of Lamine Yamal who signed the new deal, an unusual detail. This is reportedly due to the fact that his grandmother could not be there and Lamine Yamal wanted his whole family there for the official photos.
A person who was present was Father Mounir Nasraoui, who was active during his early career to accompany his son. He was seen outside the club offices who shouted after the event 'Visca El Barca' and then proceeded to a photo on his Intagram story with his son in the basketball arena. Without context he placed '19, 3 'as the caption.
Some have speculated that this could be the value of his new salary in millions, Cadena Ser claimed that € 19.3 million could refer his net salary, including the bonus that Lamine Yamal would earn for winning the Ballon d'Or. In the meantime, El Chiringuito has disputed this idea, whereby Jose Alvarez claims to have spoken with Nasraoui. His claim is that the 19 refers to the number of Lamine Yamal, and the three is a reflection of the number of titles he won this year.
There has been a lot of speculation about the salary of Lamine Yamal. Last week director of Football Deco claims that he had asked to be the best paid in the team, while President Joan Laporta had said that Lamine Yamal needed a contract in accordance with his new status.
It is thought that he has a release clause of € 1B and his basic salary will be around € 8 million a year. Including all variables and bonuses, he could become the best paid player in the team. It has also been suggested that his salary will increase by € 2 million per season.
