Official: 17-year-old Barcelona star signs new deal until 2031 | OneFootball

There has been no shortage of iconic moments for FC Barcelona in this recent season. After all, the Catalan giants managed to win a domestic treble and went far in the UEFA Champions League. Ultimately, Barcelona have the likes of Lamine Yamal and other stars to thank for that.

Yamal, in particular, has been a fundamental part of this team’s success throughout this recent campaign. After all, despite being just 17 years of age, the Spanish winger has managed to outshine many of the biggest names in the sport this season.

Barcelona confirm the renewal of Lamine Yamal

As such, it was only a matter of time before the club decided to renew the contract of arguably their most coveted player and asset. In terms of his value both on the pitch and off it, there is simply no other FC Barcelona who can match that kind of influence right now.

Thus, it hardly comes as a surprise that Barcelona have now officially confirmed Lamine Yamal’s renewal and that the player has signed his new deal with the club. A major step in the right direction for La Blaugrana, this news comes shortly after the confirmation that he had arrived at the club’s offices to sign his new contract.

A six-year commitment for the winger

With this new deal set to expire in 2031 now, Lamine Yamal has entered a long-term agreement with Barcelona for six more years and it makes sense. Looking past all his incredible achievements and milestones, it must not be forgotten that this player is still just a teenager and yet he has taken over the football world by storm.

From legends of the game praising him to even top players labelling him as the best player in the world, Lamine Yamal is here to stay for sure. Already considered a serious Ballon d’Or contender, the 17-year-old Barcelona star definitely has no established ceiling just yet and the sky is truly the limit for him.
