The club will not use its legendary number for the new season. An overview of how the last ones who took it have fared
Barcelona will not play in Camp Nou this season, but in Montjuic. But that is not the only strange event that will happen in Can Barça in the 2023-2024 season. There will be an even sadder story for the melancholy. In addition to the change of home, the Barça team will see how no footballer in the squad will wear the mythical number ’10’ on his back.
Four days after the transfer window closed in Spain and the last registrations took place, Barcelona have released their figures for the season. It is new that the first team is left without a ’10’ for the first time in 28 years. And that hasn’t happened since 1995.
The ’10’ is an emblematic number in almost all teams, and Barcelona is no exception. A number that historical players like Giovanni, Litmanen, Rivaldo, Riquelme, Ronaldinho or Messi have worn, and which Ansu Fati, now on loan to Brighton, ended up using.
Goal invites you to take a look at how the last ones to wear the ’10’ did at Camp Nou…
