Lamine Yamal shirt sells £65,000, beating Ronaldo, Messi

Lamine Yamal's match‑worn, signed FC Barcelona shirt fetched £65,000 at auction. The price set a new benchmark, eclipsing previous records held by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. The jersey was worn during Barcelona's 7‑2 Champions League victory over Newcastle United. That win is remembered as one of the club's most dominant European performances. Ronaldo's record‑breaking shirt previously sold for less than £65,000. Messi's signed shirt also fell short of the new figure. The transaction underscores collector appetite for items linked to rising stars such as Yamal. Future auctions may target other young prospects following this precedent.
