Ansu Fati’s Monaco Loan Opens Door for Yamal

After Messi left the team, the famous jersey was given to young player Ansu Fati. However, at 22 years old, he has not been able to meet the high expectations that many had for him. As a result, he was loaned to another team, Brighton & Hove Albion, to gain more experience.

Fati will play for AS Monaco on loan next season, which opens the opportunity for Yamal to take on one of the sport’s most iconic jersey numbers.

After winning the European Championship with Spain last year, Yamal expressed his ambition to add more trophies to his collection by achieving titles that he hasn’t yet won.
