Yamal is retained by Barcelona with a similar contract to Messi

Being a Ballon d'Or contender at 17 is extraordinary. But it's part of Lamine Yamal's everyday life.

Barcelona's young talent has continuously broken records, played outstandingly and shone in every arena, playing a key role in the team's journey to conquer the King's Cup, Spanish Super Cup and La Liga.

SPORT has just revealed that President Joan Laporta and his associates are considering applying a contract structure similar to the terms previously used for Lionel Messi to young star Lamine Yamal. He believes that this would be the perfect highlight for a "win-win" deal.

Deco, the club's sporting director, is in talks with Yamal's side, and believes Barcelona don't need to make him their highest-paid player right away, as long as the club shows they appreciate him. The trick is to satisfy both parties, aligning the value and performance of the player chosen.

Like Messi in the past, Yamal's contract is expected to include many performance-based bonus clauses, such as: league championships, European conquests, winning the Ballon d'Or or the Golden Boot.

The special thing is that every time a clause is activated, that bonus will become a fixed salary, increasing Yamal's total income. Every time he sets a new record, his income will increase, while maintaining his dedication and the team will benefit greatly.

Yamal will become the highest paid person when he wins many championships, Golden Balls,...

In this way, both sides benefit: Barcelona benefits from Yamal's development and commercial value, and the young talent will gradually rise to the ranks of the highest paid players in the team, or the world of football.

Yamal is currently only thinking about renewing with Barcelona and his agent has confirmed that it is only a matter of time. The coming days will be crucial.

With Hansi Flick and Raphinha committed to the team, Barcelona's focus and priority now turns to Lamine Yamal's contract extension.
