Eye-watering details of Lamine Yamal's blockbuster new Barcelona contract revealed as teenager is propelled into Blaugrana's top earners

Per bein Sports, Yamal's new deal has catapulted him up the salary ladder at Barcelona, and he is now one of the club's top earners after putting pen to paper. He has extended his stay until 2031 and will earn €15 million (£12.5m/$17m) per season as a base salary, potentially rising to €20m (£17m/$23m) with bonuses. That puts him on a weekly wage of £325,000.

Yamal's deal also included a staggering release clause of €1 billion (£838m/$1.1bn) as the club aim to keep the winger at the club for the foreseeable future. The 17-year-old scored 18 goals and registered 25 assists in all competitions across a La Liga and Copa del Rey-winning campaign for Hansi Flick's side.

Yamal is also expected to be given the No.10 shirt once Ansu Fati leaves the club, as he takes over the number previously worn by Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi, in another show of faith from the Catalan giants.

Barcelona's players will now embark on their summer holidays ahead of the 2025-26 season, when they will aim to defend their title.
