Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal will don a new shirt number for the 2024/2025 season.
According to ESPN, the 17-year-old will be assigned the No. 19 shirt, which matches the number he wears for Spain. Having played last season with a youth team registration, Yamal will officially join the first team for the upcoming campaign.
