It was widely known, but it needed to be made official, which happened on Wednesday afternoon:Lamine Yamal will assume the number 10 at Barcelona, a number of great significance in the club's history.

The announcement coincided with the formal event of his previously announced contract extension, showcased through a creative video that depicted the forward alongside his new number.

"Our new No. 10," the club declared on social media.

Ansu Fati had aspirations to embrace the challenge of wearing this iconic number after Leo Messi, but it didn't materialize.
