The Barça shirt with the number 10 on the back will always remember footballers such as Romário, Ronaldinho and, above all, Leo Messi , but the increasingly important financial demands in the world of football require that this number no longer lacks owner and has a new owner.
During the last season, Xavi Hernández’s team did not have ’10’. Ansu Fati , its last owner, is the one who started the campaign wearing it, but the Catalan entity and Brighton ended up agreeing on his transfer and no player ended up taking his number.
Now, in the face of the new season, in several interviews Lamine Yamal was asked about the possibility of inheriting a number with so much mystique and so much history, but the new Barcelona phenomenon has always emphasized that it is Ansu himself who will have the ‘last word and that it is the ex-Brighton’s only current owner.
While the future of Ansu Fati is still up in the air , several voices point out that the club would already have a clear idea of what to do with his ’10’. Obviously, this would be intended for Lamine Yamal, footballer who is the new idol of Barcelona and the team’s main offensive weapon.
With the arrival of the new season and the new image of Barça with its shirt, the recovery of the ’10’ among the main idols of the fans is considered by Nike to be a great incentive for the increase that generates the Barça brand in its numbers. What’s more, if it’s rising star Lamine Yamal who does it, the impact is expected to be even higher.
The idea, then, is that it is Lamine Yamal who inherits the number ’10’. Be that as it may, if the effect of the return of the ’10’ is already expected to be great at an economic level, it is expected that this will multiply if Nico Williams ends up arriving at Barça . The winger of the Athletic Club is, together with the young pearl, the star of the Spanish team.
Her impact at Euro 2024 in Germany is going around the world and her photos and videos dancing or playing rock, paper and scissors while taking turns drinking water are a real social media interaction machine.
How could it not be otherwise, Nike, the brand that dresses Barça and that also represents Nico Williams, sees clearly that the binomial that Luis de la Fuente has as wingers in the Spanish national team will be a gold mine if joins the same club.
