Laporta didn't evne know how to treat his club even better. Rejecting a 200 million offer for Yamal, and yeah, that's a pure sensation from him. So many times he created this non sense thing. I remember when he was also making some sensational news about Barcelona's players. It seems like that Laporta has the ambition to use this to make Lamine's price go up.
This is an old trick the gold guy uses to make his favorite players famous. I think that if this news is real and im sure that it has already leaked it's kinda of different since laporta says nothing regarding who club that was sending an offer to get him.
Laporta sent a signal through this news if he wants other club who is interesting in yamal to pay more than 200 millions. Barcelona needs money to pay its debt and no doubt that laporta used any trick to ensure his club will able to raised a lot of money.
I agree with things like these are never been helping them to have any solid solution of their problems which are happening around them for long time Lamine Yamal is just 16 years old and pricing like this is surely not going to around him with mostly peoples also understand about Laporta and his tactics which are not helping Barcelona for having things turn into positive way in past he has already done tactics like these many times but fail to bring any positive thing for his team.
Currently, we have no club which can afford to spend amount like this for teenager and why he rejected this is also sensation because if he accepted then surely they can do many things for the next season which are preventing them from having new players for their squad's strength which is most important for them after having poor performance in this season due to lack of quality players.
