Over the past few weeks, there have been murmurs about PSG taking an interest in Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal.
Last night, the rumours resurfaced again, with reports in France suggesting that the Parisian giants had made the 16-year-old La Masia graduate a priority target to replace Kylian Mbappe in the summer and are willing to splash €200 million.
The fact that they have a good relationship with Yamal’s agent, Jorge Mendes, means they believe they might be in a position to pull off the deal.
Yamal not for sale
However, according to a new report from MARCA, Barcelona have no plans of selling Lamine Yamal this summer under any circumstances.
PSG believe that Barcelona’s financial situation could compel them into considering a sale if they put forward €200 million for the 16-year-old Spanish international.
However, as far as the Blaugrana are concerned, the only way any club can sign Yamal is if they pay his €1 billion release clause as they do not intend to sell him.
Key for the present and the future
Yamal, along with several other youngsters like Pau Cubarsi, Hector Fort, and Fermin Lopez are seen as key to the present and the future of the club.
These four, along with other established stars like Pedri, Gavi, and Ronald Araujo are seen as the backbone of this Barcelona team and any offers will not be considered.
As for the club’s financial situation, they would be open to selling other players in the squad to generate revenue. But, Yamal is not for sale even if PSG put €200 million on the table.
