Barcelona’s teenage sensation Lamine Yamal may have suffered heartbreak in the El Clásico, but he’s already making power moves off the pitch.
According to reports from El País, the 18-year-old forward is close to purchasing a luxurious mansion once owned by Gerard Piqué and his ex-wife, Shakira. The stunning property, located in one of Barcelona’s most exclusive neighborhoods, was originally listed for £12 million when the couple separated three years ago.
Now valued at around £9.5 million, the mansion is said to feature both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court, and even a recording studio — perfect for a young star carving his own legacy.
Yamal, who was in action during Barcelona’s 2-1 loss to Real Madrid, seems eager to move past the defeat with something more uplifting. Sources close to the player say he’s already viewing the property and plans to invest heavily in renovations to match his personal taste and lifestyle.
The mansion, built in 2012, originally consisted of three separate houses, though one has since been sold. The remaining property spans a massive 3,800 square feet, offering the young forward more than enough room to unwind after matchdays.
This potential purchase follows earlier reports of Yamal buying new homes for his mother, father, and grandmother, showcasing his deep appreciation for family even as his football career skyrockets.
At just 18, Yamal has already recorded three goals and five assists in eight appearances this season — a testament to why he’s widely regarded as one of the world’s most exciting young footballers.
While Barcelona’s management continues to keep a close eye on his development, fans can’t help but admire how the teenager is balancing success, family, and ambition — both on and off the pitch.
