18-year-old winger of 'Barcelona' Lamin Yamal stopped signing shirts and other club merchandise. This information was disclosed by the publication Mundo Deportivo.
It is noted that the footballer received an offer from a company that sells sports souvenirs online. To increase the value of his signature, Yamal's managers prohibited him from giving autographs to fans; now they can only be obtained through the official platform.
The club understandably respects this decision and will leave a limited number of signatures for official events. It is worth mentioning that Yamal is already the face of brands such as Adidas, Beats, Powerade, Oppo, Nesquik, and is a UNICEF ambassador.
