Yamal, visibly excited, put his name and the number 10 on a blaugrana shirt in the official store of the Spotify Camp Nou, after formalizing his new contract in the club’s offices.

Enjoying off the field

The footballer also spoke about his personal life, assuring that he enjoys his time away from football.

In the end, I work for Barça and I play for Barça, but, when I’m outside the Ciudad Deportiva, I enjoy my life, and that’s it.

Yamal stated that he doesn’t pay much attention to comments about his lifestyle, including the celebration of his recent birthday.

Both criticism and praise, if they don’t come from my family or friends, are a bit indifferent to me. Right now I’m very focused on football.
