Barcelona have officially announced a new long-term contract for Lamine Yamal, tying him to the club until June 2031.
The contract extension follows a breakout campaign in which he helped Barcelona secure a domestic treble in Hansi Flick’s first season in charge.
He made 55 appearances across all competitions, scoring 18 goals and providing 25 assists as the Catalan giants won La Liga, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup.
Having made his first-team debut at just 15, Yamal has already played 106 matches for Barcelona, becoming the youngest player in club history to reach 100 appearances.
He is also the youngest ever goalscorer in La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Super Cup, and has been involved in several crucial victories, including four El Clasico wins this season.
Yamal’s influence stretches beyond club level. He was part of the Spain squad that won the 2024 European Championship in Germany and has already earned 19 senior international caps.
Barcelona described the renewal as a ‘demonstration of the solidity’ of their project, stating that Yamal’s emergence ‘is already part of club history’.
The club’s decision to secure the forward on a long-term basis also underscores their confidence in his role as a central figure in their future plans.
Yamal joined La Masia at the age of seven and has developed into one of the most exciting young talents in world football.
Once he turns 18 in July, his salary will reportedly increase from €5 million to the new figure, with bonuses potentially pushing his earnings close to €20m per year.
Barcelona have also recently renewed contracts for manager Flick and forward Raphinha, as they look to solidify the foundations of a new era at the Camp Nou.
With Yamal now secured, attention is expected to turn to the futures of fringe players such as Ansu Fati and Pau Victor.
