Barcelona’s president, Joan Laporta, has confirmed that the club turned down a substantial offer of €250 million for their young talent, Lamine Yamal. The bid was made by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) prior to the summer transfer window, as reported by Laporta.

PSG’s Interest in Yamal

PSG’s interest in Lamine Yamal is not new, as the French club has been keen on acquiring the promising player. The bid, however, was firmly rejected by Barcelona, demonstrating their commitment to retaining Yamal’s services.

Lamine Yamal’s Role at Barcelona

Lamine Yamal, who has been a subject of significant interest, continues to be a key figure at Barcelona. The club has shown confidence in his abilities, as evidenced by their decision to assign him the number 19 shirt, a move confirmed in July 2024.

Yamal’s Commitment to Barcelona

Yamal has previously expressed his dedication to Barcelona, reaffirming his commitment to the club in September 2024. His future at the club has been a topic of discussion, with Barcelona’s sporting director, Deco, praising his potential and future prospects at the club.

Previous Offers and Rejections

This is not the first time Barcelona has rejected a significant offer for Yamal. Earlier in April 2024, the club turned down a €200 million bid, which was met with joy by Yamal, as he expressed satisfaction over the club’s decision to keep him.
