Barcelona’s DECO sports director said that he believes that Lamine Yamal will extend the contract and become a new symbol of the team in the promising younger generation.
Yamal’s contract is still valid until 2026, but according to ESPN, this young talent will sign a new contract when the age of 18 in July.
Yamal had an impressive season, contributing greatly to help Barcelona win the Spanish Super Cup and the King’s Cup, and at the same time facing the opportunity to win the La Liga championship when there was only two points in the last three matches. This winger has scored 16 goals and has 24 assists in all competitions, forming a key point with Raphinha and Lewandowski.
According to Deco, Barcelona owns a potential young generation including Yamal, Pau Cubarsi, Alejandro Balde and Pedri – who can rewrite the history of the club. Deco shared with ESPN.
“He was born here, grew up from La Masia.
Despite confirming that there is no intention of changing the personnel in the summer, Barca big boss admitted to the club to add the backup plan for Yamal and Raphinha to avoid too much dependence on the duo. He also confirmed that the team will continue to retain the pillars and maintain the long -term stability for the future.
In other developments, the Nou Camp team plans to break up 9 players this summer.
