From this Wednesday, striker Lamine Yamal will wear the dorsal '10 ′ of Barcelona for the next course, a movement that ratifies the young Catalan talent as the team's star and includes it in a select list of which other idols such as Lionel Messi, Romario or Ronaldinho are part.
The soccer player of Mataró (Barcelona), who on July 13 turned 18 and in May renewed until 2031, will inherit the number that Ansu Fati had until now, who will play the next campaign in Monaco as a transfer.
Fati, who assumed the responsibility of adopting the '10 ′ after the traumatic departure of Messi in 2021, beat all the record records of the club in his day, but the continuous injuries have made their progression. There appeared the new star.
Lamine Yamal, after the path of Messi and Ronaldinho
Fato's records were sprayed, years later, by Lamine Yamal, that from next season the shirt will be covered with which Messi left an indelible mark both with his performances and with his legacy of titles: ten leagues, four leagues of champions, six gold balls and six gold boots, among other successes.

The Rosario had collected Ronaldinho's witness, who returned the smile to the Camp Nou and the brightness to the dorsal '10 ′ Barca, guiding Barça to a new golden era, which crowned with the' Champions' of 2006 and the Golden Ball a few months before.
The Brazilian had collected the witness of Juan Roman Riquelme, who arrived in Barcelona with high expectations for his performance in Boca Juniors, but failed to consolidate himself for his disagreements with coach Louis Van Gaal.
Before, the number '10 ′ had been owned by Rivaldo, another who won the Golden Ball as Barca. In the previous years, the mythical Zamarra had been owned by Jari Litmanen, Giovanni Silva and Ángel Cuéllar.
Romario and Maradona, two geniuses with the '10 ′ on the back
The dorsals were not fixed in Spain until the 1995-96 campaign, so in the 'Dream Team' there were several players who wrapped the reputed T-shirt: Gheorghe Hagi, Guillermo Amor, Eusebio Sacristán, Richard Witschge and even Pep Guardiola, who defended him anecdotally in the 1992 Wembley final.
However, the most remembered '10 ′ of the 1990s is surely Romario, a world champion like Diego Armando Maradona, who wore the same shirt in the previous decade during his rugged passage through the Camp Nou.
Between them there were other Dieces less remembered by the general public such as Roberto Fernández, Gary Lineker, Mark Hughes and the 'Boquerón' Esteban, while in the seventies the dorsal belonged to the great captain of the decade, Juan Manuel Asensi, and also to the Peruvian Hugo 'Cholo' Sotil.
The list is lost until the forties, when the dorsals began to be used in Spain. Laszlo Kubala, Luis Suárez and Josep María Fusté were some of those who most emblematic players in wearing the '10 ′ during the fifties and sixty.
A long dynasty of soccer players who will now join Lamine Yamal, a player who has so far been immune to the weight of history and that from the next course will begin to write his own chapter with the '10 ′ behind his back.
