Lamine Yamal Poised to Inherit Barcelona’s Iconic No. 10 Jersey
Despite being on holiday, Lamine Yamal remains closely connected to Barcelona, the club where he rose to prominence. During his break, he has been active on social media, sharing images of legendary players Ronaldinho and Diego Maradona, both famed for wearing Barcelona’s iconic number 10 jersey. These posts hint at a significant upcoming change related to this prestigious number.
The current number 10, Ansu Fati, is set to leave Barcelona soon as he prepares to join AS Monaco. This transition opens the door for Yamal, a close friend of Ansu both on and off the field, to step into a more prominent role within the team. Barcelona’s management has already identified Yamal as the ideal successor to carry this historic number.
The club is gearing up for the launch of next season’s jerseys, which will feature Yamal’s name and number 10. This announcement is expected to coincide with the official confirmation of Ansu Fati’s transfer, becoming a key element in Barcelona’s commercial strategy. The unveiling is planned to make a strong impact at the start of the new season.
On July 13, during the first day of preseason training, Barcelona will officially present Yamal as the new number 10 and celebrate his contract extension through June 2031. Although the contract was signed before the break, the club and player have waited to announce it until a special moment could be captured, including a photo with Yamal’s grandmother to mark the occasion.
