A Home With Barça History

The meteoric rise of Lamine Yamal is not only reflected on the pitch with Barcelona, but also in his lifestyle off it. At just 18 years old, the forward has already become one of the highest-paid footballers in LaLiga, and he is now reportedly ready to take another major step in his personal life: acquiring the iconic mansion that once belonged to Gerard Piqué and Shakira.

According to Spanish outlet El País, Yamal has his eyes set on the luxurious property located in Esplugues de Llobregat, on the outskirts of Barcelona. The home is more than just a house — it represents a piece of recent club history, as it was the residence of the former Barcelona captain for many years.

The property, which was initially put up for sale following the couple’s split and listed at around £12 million, would now be valued at close to £9.5 million, after one of the annexed buildings was sold separately.

A Growing Fortune for the Young Prodigy

The mansion features three independent structures spread across more than 3,800 square feet of land. Within the main residence, luxurious amenities include:

• Indoor and outdoor swimming pools
• A private tennis court
• A recording studio
• Expansive, secluded gardens

A combination that fits perfectly with the profile of a rising global star like Lamine Yamal.

The young footballer has already purchased new homes for his mother, father and grandmother in recent months — a gesture widely celebrated by fans, reflecting his strong family values. But this acquisition would be the first intended solely for his own comfort and lifestyle.

Reports also indicate that the Barcelona attacker is willing to invest significantly in renovations, aiming to personalize every detail of what could be his new home.

The Present and Future of a Global Star

With an estimated weekly wage of £325,000, Yamal has the financial power to complete the operation and continue to build his wealth while solidifying his career at the elite level of world football.

Negotiations are reportedly progressing, and anticipation continues to grow in Barcelona: the heir to the blaugrana project may soon live in the same residence once occupied by club legend Gerard Piqué and international superstar Shakira.

One more sign that the present — and perhaps the future — of the Catalan giants already has a name: Lamine Yamal.
