Lamine Yamal opts for new jersey number at Barcelona
Young Spanish sensation Lamine Yamal is set to wear the number 19 jersey next season. This was the same number that Lionel Messi wore in his formative years at Barcelona as the Number 10 jersey was held by Ronaldinho.
FC Barcelona put out a statement which read “The uncertainty is over. Lamine Yamal to be an official first team player this season, will wear number 19 for the 2024/25 season. The teenager follows in the footsteps of several high profile players during FC Barcelona’s history”
The statement also read “And it is also the number he wore during the EURO 2024 tournament in which he was named the Young Player of the Tournament after a series of performances that captivated the world”
Meanwhile, there are reports coming out of Camp Nou that Jorge Mendez who happens to be the agent of Lamine Yamal is seeking better wages for his client. The move comes after Lamine Yamal became the youngest ever player to win the EURO title.
According to reports, FC Barcelona are more than happy to sit across the table and hold talks over new wages. The move comes into play after it was said that there is a chance that Paris Saint Germain could make a move for the youngster. PSG have recently lost their marquee player Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid on the free.
