BREAKING: Lamine Yamal Has Bigger Plans Than Just Wearing Barça’s No. 10 Shirt
Barcelona’s rising star Lamine Yamal isn’t just satisfied with inheriting the legendary No. 10 jersey—he’s aiming to take on even more responsibility. According to reports, the 18-year-old has informed club officials that he wants to take charge of both penalty kicks and free-kicks in the upcoming season, signaling his growing confidence and ambition.
The iconic No. 10 shirt, once worn by legends like Messi, Ronaldinho, and Rivaldo, symbolizes leadership and creativity at Barça. Now, Yamal wants to add set-piece duties to his role, asserting himself as a central figure in the team’s attack.
A source close to Yamal said:
“Lamine believes he’s ready. He’s not just here to play—he wants to be the game-changer.”
Ambition Meets Pressure
With experienced players like Lewandowski and Gündoğan still in the squad, Yamal’s request could lead to competition over set-piece responsibilities. However, after a breakout club season and an impressive showing at Euro 2024, his determination and talent are undeniable.
Is he ready to handle the pressure of being Barça’s go-to man in critical moments? Should the club entrust him with set-pieces so early?
One thing is certain: Lamine Yamal is not here to blend in—he’s here to take charge.
