Manchester City and Liverpool are closely monitoring the future of Barcelona’s rising star, Lamine Yamal—one of the most exciting young talents in world football.
Yamal made his breakthrough into Barcelona’s senior squad at just 15 and, by 17, is already considered among the top players globally. While Barcelona currently enjoy his services, there’s growing uncertainty about how long that might last.
Although Yamal is under contract until 2026, the club’s financial constraints could delay a planned five-year extension when he turns 18 in July. Barcelona’s current wage bill is too tight to register a new deal for the teenager.
This situation has reportedly attracted interest from Premier League giants Manchester City and Liverpool, according to *Mundo Deportivo*. Both clubs are said to be watching closely in case an opportunity to sign him arises.
However, despite the interest and Barcelona’s ongoing financial issues, the likelihood of Yamal leaving remains low. The Catalan club is optimistic they will resolve their salary cap issues in time to secure his long-term future.
For now, while top clubs across Europe would love to land a player of Yamal’s caliber, it appears he’s set to stay at Camp Nou—at least in the near future.
