The coveted Barcelona No. 10 jersey worn by players like Lionel Messi, Ronaldinho, and Juan Roman Riquelme will not go to Lamine Yamal.

Barcelona and Nike have reached an understanding about who would wear Messi’s renowned No. 10 jersey.

Ansu Fati, who left the La Liga powerhouses to go on for Brighton on a season-long loan, has worn the jersey.

El Nacional further claims that Nike forced Barca to sell Fati and give wonderkid Yamal the coveted No. 10 shirt.

The 15-year-old made his Barcelona debut last season, and he went on to win La Liga at the youngest age ever recorded in Spanish history.

Yamal scored in a 7-1 victory against Georgia last week to become the youngest player ever to make his national team debut or score a goal for Spain.

The adolescent is reportedly being passed over for Barcelona’s No. 10 jersey even though he is making waves on the international level.

According to the source, upcoming star Victor Roque is now in position to don the jersey because a deal between the club and the manufacturer has reportedly already been made.

Roque, 18, will move to Barcelona from Athletico Paranaense in January. Roque paid the Catalan giants an initial £25.7 million to sign him.

When Brazil competed in the South American U20 tournament in February, Roque, who made his professional debut at age 16, was in charge of the attack and finished the competition with six goals.

Ramon Menezes, the coach of Brazil’s U23 team, does feel that Barcelona is bringing in a world star.

According to statements from Diario AS, “I see Vitor Roque becoming one of the top players in the world.”

“We have great expectations for him and put a lot of faith in him. He has never lost his appetite or his desire for more, which are among his best qualities.
