Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal will no longer be able to freely give autographs to fans, reports Mundo Deportivo.
According to the source, the 18-year-old Spaniard has signed an endorsement deal with a company that will sell various gear with Lamine Yamal’s autographs. Consequently, the player’s contract stipulates that he cannot give autographs for free, as this could impact the value of unique signed merchandise. Barcelona is also fighting for Yamal’s autographs, as the club also sells memorabilia with player signatures.
It is worth noting that the parties have not yet signed the contract, but the deal is in its final stages.
