Barcelona plans new contract and release clause for Hamza Abdelkarim

Barcelona is set to reward 18-year-old forward Hamza Abdelkarim after a strong pre-season. The Egyptian scored four goals in three appearances, leading the club to consider increasing his release clause from €15 million to €150 million. The club is in discussions with Abdelkarim's representatives regarding a new deal and the potential for him to be registered with the first team. His performances, particularly in the Joan Gamper Trophy, have raised his profile significantly within the organization as they search for a new center-forward.
