The 18-year-old has officially extended his contract with FC Barcelona until 2031, and it has also been confirmed that he will wear the number 10 shirt. Speaking to the this Wednesday, he said, "This is the beginning of a journey that I hope will be very long and full of victories."
He also spoke about his goals: "To keep growing, because I’m still very young, but above all to keep winning ... I’ll give everything to make the fans happy ... This is my lifetime club and the best in the world.”
Looking ahead to the upcoming season, Lamine Yamal expressed his confidence, saying he hopes to "keep enjoying my football and to have an even better season than the last."
But for now, he has just one primary focus, and that's the double training sessions that Hansi Flick has planned for him and his team-mates at the Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper.
