Lamine Yamal will attempt to put recent off-field controversies behind him this afternoon when Barcelona hold a second event to mark the teenager signing a new contract. Yamal penned the deal in May that ties him to the Spanish champions until 2031 but did so without either his grandmother Fatima or brother Keyne in attendance.

A Barcelona player has spoken about the path Lamine Yamal must navigate. In just a few days, Lamine Yamal will turn 18. For a player of his impact and stature to be so young is rare, and the eyes of the soccer world are firmly fixed on him.

Lamine Yamal owns multiple La Liga and Champions League records for Barcelona and many others for Spain's national team.
