In recent days, Lamine Yamal’s name has once again become the focus of football headlines. Spanish and international media reported an alleged offer from Saudi club Al-Hilal worth 400 million euros. However, representatives from Barcelona have denied any negotiations and emphasized that the club is not considering parting with one of its key players.
Rumors about a possible Yamal transfer are nothing new. Previously, in March last year, the Catalan side had already rejected an offer from French club PSG reportedly worth 200 million euros. This time, the amount mentioned in the press would be the largest in football history, but Barcelona has not confirmed receipt of any official bid.
Lamine Yamal himself, who recently turned 18, is still recovering from a groin injury. Because of this, he missed matches against Sevilla and was unable to join the national team games. The player is now using this forced break to rest and recover, while the coaching staff is closely monitoring his condition.
The club reiterates that Yamal remains a crucial member of the squad. Last summer, he signed a new long-term contract valid until 2031. The deal includes not only a high fixed salary, but also significant bonuses and reward payments for reaching specific goals. According to estimates, if all conditions are met, the player’s earnings could reach 20 million euros per year.
In the coming days, the team will resume training to prepare for the match against Girona. It remains unclear whether Yamal will recover in time for this game, but his participation in the upcoming El ClΓ‘sico is considered almost certain. The coaching staff is not rushing to draw conclusions and prefers to wait for the final medical reports.
Despite interest from foreign clubs, Barcelona’s management has no intention of parting with one of Europe’s most promising footballers. The club emphasizes that Lamine Yamal plays a key role in the team’s long-term plans and continues to set new records for performance and age in Spanish football.
