Lamine Yamal to Wear Number 10 Spain Kit
- Yamal's Number Change: Lamine Yamal, age 17, will wear Spain's number 10 jersey in upcoming matches.
- Reason for Change: This change is due to Dani Olmo's hamstring injury, who is the typical number 10 for Spain.
- Temporary Nature: The number 10 is expected to revert back to Olmo once he has recovered from injury, with Yamal's promotion seen as temporary.
Lamine Yamal, at just 17 years old, will wear the prestigious number 10 jersey for Spain in the upcoming international matches.
Lamine Yamal Gets Number 10 Spain Kit From Injured Olmo
Yamal previously wore number 19 in his earlier appearances, but with Dani Olmo out of the squad due to a hamstring injury, Yamal has been handed the number traditionally reserved for one of the team's key playmakers.
Footy Headlines expects that Olmo, who has been Spain's regular number 10, will reclaim his shirt once he returns from injury, surely in time for the March 2025 international window. Still, Yamal’s temporary promotion to this iconic number highlights his rapid rise and growing importance in the Spanish national team setup.
Yamal is wearing the Barcelona number 19 kit. The Barcelona number 10 shirt is occupied by Ansu Fati.
Do you think Lamine Yamal will, from now on, always wear the number 10 shirt? Or will Olmo get his number 10 back? Let us know in the comments below.
