Lamine Yamal officially receives Barcelona number 10 after contract extension

Lamine Yamal has been officially unveiled as Barcelona’s number 10 jersey holder — a historic moment that took place at Camp Nou yesterday.

This announcement came just three days after the talented player celebrated his 18th birthday — a number previously worn by legends like Diego Maradona, Ronaldinho, and Lionel Messi.

Barcelona also announced Yamal’s contract extension until 2031 — with a fantastic release clause of 1 billion euros to protect their young talent from European elite clubs’ interest.

The player of Moroccan descent revealed his ambition after receiving the sacred number:

“I promise to lead Barcelona to Champions League victory and win the World Cup with the Spanish National Team.”
