Barcelona Faces Challenge to Balance Lamine Yamal's Development and Exploitation

The club must protect their young star's health and potential while capitalizing on his talent amidst high market interest.

Lamine Yamal, at 17, has become a key player for Barcelona, scoring five goals and assisting five more in 11 appearances this season.
Barcelona turned down a $270 million offer for Yamal, reportedly from Paris Saint-Germain, highlighting his immense market value.
Yamal recently suffered a hamstring strain during international duty, raising concerns about overuse and the need for careful management.
Club officials, including sporting director Deco, emphasize the importance of nurturing Yamal's talent without overburdening him.
Barcelona President Joan Laporta announced a forthcoming major sponsorship deal with Nike, aiming to bolster the club's financial stability.
