Golden Boy award founder: PSG could plot world-record €250m move for Barcelona prodigy to replace Mbappe

Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal has enjoyed a meteoric rise over the past year. From being a relatively unknown quantity, the 16-year-old has become a household name following a sensational breakthrough campaign for club and country.

Indeed, the La Masia graduate has already established himself as a mainstay for Barcelona and is in the process of doing so with the Spanish national team as well.

Making his European Championship debut with La Roja last weekend, the teenage sensation put in a fine display while breaking a few records along the way.

Yamal, at this point, is one of the frontrunners to win the Golden Boy 2024 Award and the founder of the prestigious honour, Massimo Franchi, has made a huge prediction regarding the Barcelona prodigy’s future.

Franchi claims PSG could come knocking for Yamal

Yamal signed a new contract with Barcelona last year which includes a mammoth €1 billion release clause, so as to ensure that clubs do not poach him away.

However, Massimo Franchi, in an interview with Philipp Kessler, as revealed to Barça Universal, has sensationally claimed that PSG could plot a swoop for Yamal to replace Kylian Mbappe
