Barcelona Rejects Reported €400 Million Al‑Hilal Bid for Lamine Yamal

Club sources insist the 18-year-old is staying under a long-term deal despite reports of Saudi interest.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing Fichajes.net report Al‑Hilal, coached by Simone Inzaghi, has tabled a €400 million offer for the Barcelona forward.
  • Barcelona has told reporters that Yamal is not for sale and that the proposal was turned down.
  • Reports differ on contract terms, with accounts ranging from a seven-year €21 million-per-season deal to an agreement running to 2031 with about €10 million in salary plus a €25 million signing bonus spread over six years.
  • Spanish coverage also describes recent friction between coach Hansi Flick and parts of the squad, a factor some suggest could shape transfer dynamics.
  • Yamal is currently sidelined with a groin inflammation and missed a 4-1 loss at Sevilla and Spain duty, while any decision is expected to crystalize in the next transfer window; an accepted €400 million fee would set a football transfer record.
