Reporter: Manchester City has been pursuing Yamal for a long time but failed, thinking that if they miss Messi, they must get Yamal

Reporter Romain Molina broke some behind-the-scenes information about Yamal on his personal channel. He revealed that Manchester City, Paris and other clubs were interested in Yamal in the early years. These interests indirectly led to Barcelona having to increase their renewal offer for Yamal.

The reporter said: "After Yamal became famous, various invitations came one after another, including those from other clubs. Manchester City has been trying for many years, and their logic is: 'We failed to get Messi, so we must work hard to get Yamal.' But this ultimately failed.

" The next question is, will the player renew his contract with Barcelona? More importantly, what are the terms of the renewal? Because there are huge interests, obviously, Manchester City, but especially PSG, because PSG have decided: 'We want him. No matter the cost, you have to get him one day. ’ You also know that Mendes has a very close relationship with the Paris management and the decision-makers in Qatar.

"So, a negotiation game begins. The purpose is very clear. The player obviously wants to stay in Barcelona, ​​which is his wish. And a good agent (Mendez) will use other offers and other means, which will eventually force Barcelona to give more generous renewal conditions than originally planned."
