Barcelona’s teenage sensation Lamine Yamal has delivered a cheeky nod to greatness, all but confirming he will inherit the iconic number 10 shirt.
In a recent Instagram post, Yamal shared a photo of football legend Diego Maradona donning the same number during his Barcelona days, sending a loud, confident message without saying a word.
The move comes after Ansu Fati, the previous holder of the number 10, left for AS Monaco. With the shirt now vacant, all signs point to Yamal stepping up as the new creative force for the Catalan giants.
While the club has yet to make an official statement, the buzz around Yamal’s post is louder than any press release. The teenager’s gesture not only connects him with Maradona’s legacy but also hints at his ambition to make the number his own.
Barcelona is already forecasting a financial windfall. Club insiders expect millions in revenue from global shirt sales once the new number 10 shirts hit the stores.
Lamine Yamal may be just 17, but he’s already showing swagger fit for a Barcelona legend.
