Deco Says PSG Tried to Sign Lamine Yamal Last Season but Barcelona Said No
Barcelona’s director Deco has confirmed that French side PSG made an attempt to sign teenage star Lamine Yamal last season. The interest came after Yamal impressed on the international stage, playing a key role in Spain’s Euro triumph. PSG were quick to make a move, hoping to land the rising talent.
Speaking to RAC1, Deco said the reports about PSG’s approach were true, but made it clear that Barcelona had no plans to let Yamal go. “Yes, they asked last season. Not this one,” he said. “But we’re not listening to offers. PSG showed interest, but Real Madrid didn’t.”
Deco, a former Barcelona and Chelsea midfielder, added that the club has turned down every bid for the 17-year-old, who remains untouchable. Yamal has been a major part of Barcelona’s success this season, helping them secure the LaLiga title, Copa del Rey, and the Supercopa de España.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
