Lamine Yamal new contract salary is a eye-watering figure making him one of the top earners in the world of football. Yamal agreed to commit his future to FC Barcelona signing a long term contract which guarantees his stay at the club until the summer of 2031.
The young La Masia talent has become a star at Barcelona playing in 106 matches and scoring 25 goals while laying on 34 assists. Since making his debut during Xavi Hernandez’s reign as manager aged 15 years and 290 days, he has already won two La Liga titles and a European Championship.

Yamal has been outstanding under manager Hansi Flick in 2024-25, scoring 18 goals and providing 25 assists in 55 matches. He played a central role in Barca’s successful season which saw the Catalans win the La Liga, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup. The Spain international is only 17 and has already achieved more than Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo did at his age.
Messi had netted only one goal in nine appearances when he was the same age while Ronaldo had scored five in 19 appearances for Sporting Lisbon. Yamal has already scored four times for his country at international level while both Messi and Ronaldo had not yet received a call to play for their respective nations until they turned 18.
While Messi started slow at Barcelona compared to Yamal, he went on to achieve unmatched success with the Catalans, scoring an incredible 672 goals for the club, winning four UEFA Champions League, eight Ballon d’Or and several domestic silverware. It remains to be seen if Yamal will win as much silverware as Messi by the time he retires of leaves Barca.

Barcelona are desperate to keep Yamal for the longest time possible and have included a record-breaking €1 billion release clause on his contract to protect him from interested clubs such as French giants Paris Saint-Germain.
The player has also been guaranteed the number 10 jersey previously worn by Barca greats such as Ronaldinho and Messi. He will start wearing the jersey this summer once Ansu Fati joins a new club.
