Lamine Yamal to Wear Messi’s Famous No 10 Shirt as He Signs New Deal with Barcelona
Barcelona are preparing to give rising star Lamine Yamal the legendary No 10 jersey, once worn by Lionel Messi. This big move comes as Yamal gets ready to sign a fresh long-term deal with the club this July when he turns 18. The young forward has had an impressive season and is already being talked about as a serious Ballon d’Or contender after helping Spain win the Euros last year.
Seen as the most exciting talent to come through since Messi’s early days, Yamal is now being fully backed by the club as the face of their future. His new contract will reportedly include a staggering €1 billion release clause, showing just how much trust and value Barca have placed on him.
The No 10 shirt is currently worn by Ansu Fati, but with Fati’s future at the club uncertain, the iconic number is expected to be passed on to Yamal. So far, Yamal has worn the No 19 jersey, but with this symbolic change, he’s stepping into even bigger shoes — and Barcelona believe he’s ready.
Captain of the Morocco national team, Achraf Hakimi, has shared his thoughts on the controversial topic surrounding AFCON 2025.
It can be noted that the team was accused of taking towels belonging to opposition goalkeepers during matches, which sparked criticism from fans and observers, with many calling for consequences.
Hakimi expressed his disappointment over the situation, stating “I don’t feel proud about the image we gave off with the towels. Even though that happened, the team did well in the competition. We showed respect for our opponents in the tournament.”
Ademola Lookman has praised Atlético Madrid following their 2–0 victory over Barcelona.
It can be noted that the match ended 2–0, with goals scored by Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth.
Speaking in a recent interview, Lookman commended the team’s performance and unity “It was a good result. The performance of the team, especially not to concede here, shows the work everyone’s been doing and the togetherness.”
Young Arsenal player Max Dowman is making headlines after reaching a major milestone—becoming the youngest player to feature in the UEFA Champions League knockout stages.
The previous record was held by Lamine Yamal, who made his appearance at 16 years and 223 days. Dowman, however, has now broken that record at just 16 years and 97 days.
The youngster continues to show great promise, adding another impressive achievement to his early career.
