What Happened
Barcelona president Joan Laporta stated the club rejected a 250 million euro PSG offer for Lamine Yamal in summer 2024. The purported bid would have made Yamal the most valuable footballer in history, surpassing Neymar's 222 million euro transfer in 2017. Barcelona declined despite financial struggles, considering Yamal invaluable to the club's post-Messi future.
