Barcelona was left in a state of disbelief after Gavi suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury while the teenager was playing for Spain on international duty in the previous year. It was his season that came to an end, and with it, the club’s dreams of winning any kind of trophy. He was perhaps the glue that held the team together.

Pedri has also been suffering from injuries on a regular basis, and the signing of Oriol Romeu has not been performing as well as the board had hoped it would. As a result, the current midfield for the Blaugrana has been left in a state of disarray.

Because of this, a number of Xavi’s admirers have expressed their surprise at the fact that he is not making the most of the services provided by a certain Fermin Lopez. Prior to the beginning of this season, the kid made his debut with the senior squad; but, since then, his playing time has been constantly decreasing.

The fact remains, however, that Barcelona has made the decision to officially elevate Fermin to the senior team today. According to the information that can be found on La Liga’s website, his new league card has been submitted for processing and has been authorized by the league.

The promotion of Fermin has been confirmed on the La Liga website.

Fermin will reportedly be given the number 16 first-team jersey, which was most recently worn by Ez Abde at the beginning of this season before he moved to join Real Betis in the hopes of getting more playing time. Toni Juanmarti has made this assertion.

Before bravely taking on Andres Iniesta’s renowned #8 jersey, which is now rightfully with Pedri, Miralem Pjanic wore the #16 jersey during his first season. Pedri is responsible for the jersey now.

As far as Fermin is concerned, the twenty-year-old has made a total of fourteen appearances so far this season, with six of those appearances being starts. One of those starts was against Real Madrid in the league, where he came close to scoring as well.

He has scored a goal in each of those matches, and it is anticipated that he will get his first minutes as a member of the first team as early as tomorrow, when Barcelona plays Osasuna at the Olympic Saint Montjuic.
