Fermín López has been, beside Lamine Yamal, the feeling of the FC Barcelona in the beginning of the 2023/24. The mediocentro of 20 years returned to reinforce to the filial and, against all prognosis, won the confidence of Xavi Hernández. In this regard, Carles Martínez Novell, current technician of the French Toulouse, detailed in a talk in the program 'Your Diràs' of 'RAC1' how produced the signing of the of The Campillo in July of 2016, when hardly it had 13 years.
"In Andalucia always followed to Fermín of the Betis and Carlitos of the Seville. Altimira And Roura did me go to see it to Sportive City of the Betis. I called to Aureli and said him that we had to ficharlo. I said him that it was very small, but that if we did not do it in some years would call me and would say me that reason did not do it.
