In the early morning of May 19, Barcelona suffered a 2-3 defeat against Villarreal in round 37 of La Liga. Yamal contributed 1 goal in the 38th minute with a classy dribble and shot from the right wing. This was also Yamal's 9th goal in the domestic league this year.

Sofascore recorded that the 17-year-old striker has reached 150 successful dribbles in the top 5 European leagues this season, an achievement that no other player has achieved. The last time a player achieved this was in the 2021/22 season (Allan Saint-Maximin).

In the match against Villarreal, Yamal successfully completed 7 dribbles. He was the highlight of Barcelona with an 81% passing accuracy, won 8 one-on-ones and created 2 scoring chances for his teammates.

According to Squawka , Yamal is also the player who has scored the most goals from outside the box (5 goals) in the domestic league in the top 5 European leagues. The Spanish striker has a chance to extend his dribbling and scoring record when Barcelona plays Athletic Bilbao in the final round of La Liga.

Immediately after Barcelona lifted the La Liga trophy after the match against Villarreal, President Joan Laporta spoke about Yamal's future: "The contract extension with Yamal has been agreed. Everything is just waiting for the official signing."
