Barcelona Sporting Director certain Lamine Yamal will sign new contract

Barcelona's sporting director, Deco, spoke to ESPN about Lamine Yamal. He expects Yamal to sign a new contract soon. This will mark a historic moment for the club's young talent.

Yamal's current contract runs until 2026. However, he is set to extend it when he turns 18 in July.

This season, Yamal has become one of the world's best players. His performances helped Barcelona win the Spanish Supercopa and Copa del Rey.

Deco expressed confidence in Yamal's happiness at the club. "I can't see a better place for Lamine," he said. He emphasized that Yamal grew up in Barcelona and wants to be part of this exciting generation.

Deco believes there are no issues with Yamal’s contract situation. "The renewal will end up happening," he stated confidently.

He also mentioned that most players have renewed their contracts already. Deco added that he doesn't think anyone wants to leave this team due to their positive dynamic.

Barcelona could win La Liga as early as Wednesday if Real Madrid loses to Mallorca. If not, they can secure the title with a win against Espanyol on Thursday. This would complete a domestic treble for the team.
