Young Barca Sensation Set to Wear the Renowned No. 10 for Spain
Choosing to throw off his No. 19 jersey ahead of their Nations League encounter against Denmark, Lamine Yamal has changed his shirt number for Spain. ESPN Deportes claims that the 17-year-old Barcelona prodigy will don the recognizable No. 10 shirt, a number Dani Olmo, a Barcelona colleague now sidelined with an injury, used before.
Yamal joins an elite club of players who have donned this renowned number for Spain, including Cesc Fabregas and Raul, but it’s unknown if he will permanently retain the No. 10 jersey or if it’s a temporary change-over. For Yamal, who keeps sporting No. 19 for Barcelona, this is a great honor in his early career as he gets ready to play in the sought-after No. 10 shirt against Denmark.
