Lamine Yamal will sign a new contract with Barcelona when he turns 18 in the summer, with the superstar kid set to land a surprising new salary.
Over the course of the last year, the 17-year-old has proven himself to be one of the best players in the world, leading to the suggestion that he could become the youngest Ballon d’Or winner in history.
Naturally, Barcelona are eager to sign the youngster on improved terms, and his new wages have been revealed by El Chiringuito.

How much will Lamine Yamal earn at Barcelona?
Lamine Yamal’s new contract will be worth between €8-9 million per year, according to Jose Alvarez Haya.
This is a surprising figure given that the Blaugrana star will only be the third-best paid player at Camp Nou. Both Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong are paid considerably more than Lamine, who is one of the most valuable players in the world.
“These are old salaries, of course,” the journalist explains.
He added on X: “Laporta will always prioritise the club's financial health in any situation. That's how he's rescued Barca from the crisis he inherited, while also winning titles. Whoever wants to be there will be there, and in Lamine's case, there's no doubt about that.
“Laporta has drastically lowered salaries while increasing the quality of the squad.
“There will be a new salary scale that will not exceed €12-13m net. Lewa and De Jong’s contracts are the highest. This will change. It’s a great achievement to address a critical economic situation.”
Indeed, Lamine’s salary will not place him among the elite of football – or even close to it.
Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe, who are Real Madrid’s flagship players, both earn in excess of €20m per year – more than twice as much as the Barca ace will earn. Indeed, Los Blancos' newest signing Dean Huijsen is expected to receive €9m per year - around the same as Lamine.
And that’s not even considering Cristiano Ronaldo, who is paid an estimated €200m per year by Al-Nassr.
For Barcelona, the figures are largely irrelevant. What's vital is that Lamine is staying.
