Wednesday, May 21, 2025 - Lamine Yamal is reportedly set to inherit Lionel Messi's iconic No 10 shirt at Barcelona after signing a new contract with the club this summer.
Yamal, 17, has emerged as a Ballon d'Or contender
this season after winning the Euros with Spain last year, and helping Barcelona
win the La Liga title this season.
According to Memorabilia1899.co, Yamal will celebrate
his 18th birthday in July by signing a new long-term contract with Barcelona
that will contain a €1bn (£841m) release clause.
The deal will also see Yamal handed the No 10 shirt which is
currently occupied by Ansu Fati.
Fati is facing an uncertain future at Barcelona and will
have the famous jersey taken off him by Yamal.
Yamal currently holds the No. 19 jersey, which was also
the number worn by fellow former La Masia product Messi before he switched
in 2008.
The changeover will mark another historic moment in Yamal's
young career, after he made his Barca debut two years ago when he was only 15.
