Yamal said “impossible” to leave Barcelona

Barça president Joan Laporta previously claimed the club turned down a bid of €250 million for Yamal last summer.

Club official Enric Masip later suggested that the offer came from Paris Saint-Germain.

The 17-year-old said he was unaware that PSG or any other club had expressed interest in him.

“I don’t hear about it,” Yamal told Mundo Deportivo.

“If someone in my camp does, they wouldn’t have told me, either. Firstly, and above all, because I have a contract and then because I think it’s impossible that I would go to another club.”

Yamal’s current contract expire in 2026, but ESPN have previously reported there is a verbal agreement to extend his deal until 2030 when he turns 18.

“I don’t think anyone doubts how much I love this club,” he added. “I have said as much since I made my debut and everything will be resolved in the end.”

“If both parties want something to happen, it will happen. In July, when the next season starts, everything will be resolved and everyone will see.”

“But right now I am focused on LaLiga, the Champions League, and the Copa del Rey.”

“We have to think that we’re the best team”

Yamal has registered five goals and league-high 11 assists in LaLiga, and have also helped Barça into first place.

However, there is only one point separating Barca, Real Madrid, and Atletico Madrid at the top of the table.

“Being favourites or not doesn’t give you anything,” he added.

“We have to think that we’re the best team and the side that play the best football, and I think we are. We play the best football and we want to win LaLiga.
