Young star Lamine Yamal has inherited the number 10 shirt at Barca, a jersey left vacant and considered one of the most prestigious in world football history.

Coach Luis Enrique praised the experience of his former players Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba before PSG faces Inter Miami in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 round of 16.

Neymar has chosen to extend his contract with Santos, dismissing speculation of a reunion with former teammates at Inter Miami.

Luis Suarez believes comparisons to Lionel Messi could be detrimental to the career of 18-year-old forward Estevao, who has been dubbed "Little Messi".

According to striker Luis Suarez, current PSG manager Luis Enrique has evolved significantly since coaching him and Barcelona to the treble.

Many fans saw Lionel Messi's jersey swap with Estevao during the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup as a symbolic passing of the torch in elite soccer.
