World: Barcelona wants to renew his contract with Yamal as soon as possible, but don’t want to wait until he turns 18 to avoid long nights of dreams

reported on May 24 that Barcelona hopes to complete the contract renewal with Yamal as soon as possible.

Barcelona and Yamal's contract renewal came to a critical moment. It is reported that Mendes arrived in Barcelona this Thursday for lunch with the players, confirming that the two sides are accelerating the renewal negotiations in an effort to reach an agreement immediately. According to World Sports, Barcelona is unwilling to wait until Yamal turns 18 on July 13 before signing a new contract. The new contract between the two parties will last until 2030, and Yamal's salary level will also rise sharply.

Although Barcelona executives know that Yamal is eager to continue his fate with the club, after all, he joined at the age of seven and grew up to be the biggest favorite in the Golden Ball, the club's primary goal is to finalize everything 100% after the Bilbao game this weekend and before the players start a short vacation. Yamal will not be required to report to the Spanish national team on May 31 and will take another vacation after the European League. The European Union will become another display window for Yamal's global influence. If the contract renewal is not completed by then, it may cause interference from the sky-high quotations of wealthy families. If the contract can be signed as soon as possible, the club's concerns about the players being disrupted during the holiday will be completely eliminated.

Therefore, Barcelona acted quickly, and Mendes and his legal counsel flew to Barcelona urgently to handle the details of the new contract himself. Yamal himself paid close attention to the content of the terms. The club hopes to complete the entire process by next Monday at the latest. The existing contract signed in October 2023 (expired until June 30, 2026) has laid the foundation for renewal after adulthood. However, the amount agreed at that time is now completely outdated, and Barcelona has paid for the rights to renew the contract for minors. Although the original contract can legally take effect from July 13 to June 30, 2030, the club is unwilling to take any risks.

This explains the recent emergency consultations and the possible high-level meeting between Mendes and Barcelona. Before leaving by private jet, Mendes said: "The contract renewal will be completed soon."

During the Women's Champions League final this weekend, it is not ruled out that Barcelona and Mendes will meet again in Lisbon. When the men's football team played against Benfica in January and March this year, the two sides took this opportunity to negotiate. The final countdown has begun, and all signs indicate that the contract renewal that has excited Barcelona fans is about to be settled.
