Ansu Fati has been told he should never have accepted Barcelona’s offer to take over Lionel Messi’s No. 10 shirt at the club.
The youngster took over the iconic number in 2021 following Messi’s shock departure for Paris Saint-Germain but has struggled for game time in the last few years.
Injuries have played a part, but Fati has also find it hard to replicate the exciting form he first showed when he broke in to the first team.
Xavi Martín, who was the director of La Masia between 2019 and 2021, has been talking about Fati and says it was a bad idea for him to wear the 10.
