Ansu Fati Set for Monaco Loan, Opening the Door for Lamine Yamal to Inherit Barça’s No.10

Lamine Yamal to Take Over Barcelona’s No.10 Shirt
Although Lamine Yamal only changed squad numbers last summer, the 16-year-old prodigy is set to switch again—this time to inherit the legendary No.10 jersey. While the club initially planned to unveil the change later in July, around his 17th birthday, the announcement has now been fast-tracked after Yamal dropped hints over the weekend, according to Jijantes (via Mundo Deportivo).
Official Confirmation Coming This Week
Barcelona is now preparing to officially announce Yamal as the new wearer of the No.10 shirt this week, immediately after Fati’s departure is finalized. The announcement is expected to coincide with the launch of the club’s 2025/26 home kit, which goes on sale this Wednesday.
Huge Commercial Impact Expected
The club anticipates a massive surge in shirt sales featuring Yamal’s new number, which could generate vital revenue as Barcelona continues working to resolve its financial struggles. Fans are expected to rush for the jersey of the teenage sensation now poised to carry the legacy of Messi’s former number.
A Symbolic Transition for the Future of Barça
Lamine Yamal’s ascension to the No.10 jersey has long been anticipated. Despite his young age, he has consistently shown the composure, talent, and mentality required to thrive under immense pressure. Now, with one of the most historic shirt numbers in football on his back, the teenager will be expected to lead the next chapter in Barcelona’s storied legacy.

APC Fires Back at Adeleke Over ₦300bn LG Funds Allegation, Blames Governor for Salary Crisis....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The Osun State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has responded to claims by Governor Ademola Adeleke that local government officials under the party diverted about ₦300 billion meant for workers’ salaries.
Adeleke had made the allegation during a stakeholders’ meeting, accusing APC-controlled council officials of hijacking funds and forcing the state government to shoulder salary payments for local government workers, teachers, health staff, and pensioners for over a year.
He insisted he would not abandon workers, blaming the situation for delays in executing some state projects.
But in a statement, APC’s Director of Media and Information, Kola Olabisi, dismissed the claims, accusing the governor of misleading the public and shifting blame.
The party alleged that Adeleke was responsible for the salary issues, claiming he refused to release electronic payment vouchers and other financial documents needed for processing payments.
APC also said pension-related records, leave bonuses, cooperative deductions, and other financial data had not been made available despite repeated appeals, insisting that funds were properly accounted for and available for use if approved.
The party urged pensioners and workers to seek clarification, insisting the situation could be resolved if the governor allowed due process to take place.
