Football: Lamine Yamal renews with Barcelona until 2031

Rome, 28 May (LaPresse) – ‘Barcelona and Lamine Yamal have reached an agreement to renew his contract, which will keep him at the Club until 30 June 2031.’ The Blaugrana club announced this in a statement. ‘The player signed his new contract on Tuesday at the Club's offices, in the presence of FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta, first vice-president Rafa Yusta and the Club's sporting director Anderson Luis de Souza “Deco”, among others,’ Barcelona specified, emphasising that "the extension of Lamine Yamal's contract is further proof of the strength of Barcelona's current project. The Barcelona forward made his first-team debut on 29 April 2023, aged just 15, and since then the youngster from Mataró, near Barcelona, has exploded onto the world football scene with performances that have already gone down in Barcelona's history."
