Football is not for everyone. But those who choose are really blessed.
Magic, cunning, power, physical background, intelligence … Everything seems to come together in a single player who, earlier than all world world stars, ask as winner of the Golden Ball.
His name is Lamine Yamal and is, at his tender 17 years, not only a perfect machine to play football but a money factory that does not seem to have limits.
The best paid in Barcelona
As the lawyer Ramón Álvarez de Mon, knowing the issue of transfers revealed but not directly involved in this negotiation, Yamal wants 30 million euros gross per season, in addition to an annual renewal premium of 10 million also raw. Almost what he asks for will be granted, because he expires his contract in a year and what there are vultures waiting for any novelty with his agent, Jorge Mendes.
That means that Robert Lewandowski will exceed, who receives 26 million per year, but already being a 36 -year -old man, while the new wonder boy is an absolute bet.
In any case, to collect those amounts you will have to wait until July, when you turn 18. Today his parents are the ones who will count the tickets.

And the salary is the smallest income …
As usually happens with the superstars of world sport, Yamal and obscene invoice quantities for exploiting his image.
To begin with, Adidas signed it just over a year ago at a rate of 1 million euros free per year until 2030. However, it is known that he prepares new contractual conditions after the triple crown with Barcelona and the prominence in the Champions League.
In addition, the boy is already a celebrity in technology: he has a contract with Beats, a headphones brand that has even designed several custom models, with Oppo, mobile technology, and with Konami, the Japanese video game giant. Although the amounts did not transcend, it is known that double -digit earnings are counted.
According to Mundo Deportivo, now what there is a war between brands for ensuring the jewel of Barcelona, although its environment expects to limit the number to give the idea of exclusivity and make it only look in ads of prestigious and transnational reach companies.
As if that were not enough, the boy is a presence in the Kings League as president of the capital FC, which ensures presence in a particular target, in the strip of his age in different countries of the world.
At this rhythm, Lamine Yamal will leave other great brands such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi sooner rather than later. Advertising does not understand the line, or respect veteran, nothing. The king, today and for a good time, already seems to have chosen.
