The one who can help Yamal get back on track

Jorge Mendes – known as the "super agent" of European football – could play a key role in helping the 18-year-old talent overcome the current difficult period.

Lamine Yamal has been mired in off-field scandals recently.

With a history of successfully advising and guiding the careers of many stars, Mendes is not only a contract agent but also a trusted "advisor", especially when Barcelona expressed deep disappointment with Yamal's off-field behavior after the defeat at El Clásico.

It should be remembered that Mendes has been with Yamal since he was 15 years old, and this relationship has proven its value through many important events. In 2022, Mendes was the one who advised Yamal to reject a 5 million euro move to Bayern Munich.

The super agent convinced Yamal to change his mind and stay at La Masia. As a result, Yamal not only became a mainstay of the first team but also inherited the legendary number 10 shirt from Lionel Messi. Until 2025, Mendes continued to play a role in helping Yamal extend his contract with Barcelona.

Barca's leadership hopes that with experience in handling similar incidents with Cristiano Ronaldo or Joao Felix in the past, Mendes can help Yamal regain his form and stabilize the player's mentality, instead of being distracted by side controversies.

These moves will safeguard Yamal’s future. Earlier this week, Mendes flew to Barcelona for a three-hour meeting with Yamal at a hotel restaurant, arranged by sporting director Deco. The conversation was not about a contract, but rather about “guiding his behavior towards the club, the coaching staff and the dressing room,” based on internal concerns about Yamal’s management.
