World Sports: Barcelona holds a private ceremony for Yamal today, renewing the contract until 2031 + giving No. 10 jersey
"World Sports" reported that Barcelona will hold a private ceremony for Yamal today, renew the contract until 2031 and give the No. 10 jersey.
After renewing its contract with Barcelona on May 27 to June 2031, Yamal will return to the Camp Nou office this afternoon to hold another signing ceremony. His family will be present this time, and grandmother Fatima and younger brother Kane who were absent from the last signing will be present.
Although the new contract was officially effective last Sunday (Yamar's adulthood day), making him one of the highest-paid players in the team, a photo with Chairman Laporta wearing a jersey with the words "2031" will be released for the first time today. The ceremony is scheduled for the afternoon as Yamal needs to do his fourth training session with his teammates in Sports City in the morning.
The biggest highlight of this signing ceremony is that with Fati releasing the number on loan from Monaco, Yamal will officially wear the No. 10 jersey in the new season. Before the pre-season preparations began, the young player continued to release signals through his Instagram account, and released classic photos of Barcelona legend No. 10 (Maradona, Ronaldinho and Messi) for several days. The photo with Messi was particularly special. The picture recorded the warm moment when Yamal was held in the bathtub by Messi in his childhood.
Although this is a private ceremony mainly composed of family members, Yamal will still give a speech on renewal to the official media of Barcelona. Club chairman Laporta, sports director Deco and others will also attend. The club is currently coordinating the striker to accept a brief interview with Barcelona and the team media, but this arrangement itself has broken Barcelona's past conventions.
By renewing Yamal, Barcelona has secured the talented player's role for at least the next six years.
