Lamine Yamal's agent makes a big demand for a Barcelona contract after Euro 2024

Barcelona midfielder Lamine Yamal's agent has urged the club to renegotiate the terms of his current contract after his impressive form at Euro 2024, a report claims.

Yamal, who celebrated his 17th birthday while traveling with Spain, was named the young player of the Euro 2024 tournament and had a real shot at winning the big prize after collecting four assists on his way to winning the trophy.

In accordance with SPORTSYamal's agent Jorge Mendes is wasting little time in making sure the youngster's feelings are paid the salary he has played in the last 12 months is deserved.

Yamal has two years left on the contract he signed last summer, when Barca were limited in what they could offer the under-18 player.

Negotiations at the time also revealed a verbal agreement on a new four-year contract that would begin when Yamal turns 18 and bring a huge jump in salary and the number of bonuses available to the young player.

Mendes is said to be challenging Barca to deliver on the terms of that second contract to give Yamal the kind of income his position as one of the most important players deserves.

Official talks have yet to be arranged, but Barca are not expected to have a problem with Mendes' demands, knowing full well that Yamal has exceeded expectations when he signed his first contract.

There will be no new contract for Yamal, who is still set to sign his four-year deal in 2026, but the terms of that deal will now be brought forward.

Mendes wants Barca to treat Yamal in the same way they treat Lionel Messi, who signed five contracts before the age of 22 as Barca continued to reward him for his ever-increasing performances.
