Shortly after confirming his signing for FC Barcelona, it was also revealed which number Joao Félix will wear this season. He has not been able to 'take' the '7' that he wore at Atléico de Madrid

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona has announced the incorporation of Joao Félix like new player of the team. It landed in quality of loan by the next season and without option of purchase, after having renewed until the 2029 with the Athletic of Madrid. It fulfils his 'dream' to get dressed of Barcelona and will serve like piece crashes of the approach of Xavi Hernández to reinforce the line of attack in this campaign, that will be very 'special' by all the challenges that has the club.

The blaugrana have signed a summer 'top' and the incorporation of the two Joao has been the cherry of the cake. They are players that, more than safe, will generate an impact in the team and will be important. The youngster of 23 years, in particular, has by in front the mission to claim and show that it still can be one of the big 'cracks' of the European football, as it foresaw when it arrived to the Athletic of Madrid in 2019.

Joao Félix will dress the '14'

To give beginning to his stage in the Barça and leave backwards the negative moments with an Athletic with which never arrived to explode, Félix has changed his dorsal. It will carry the '14' to his back, after having dressed the number '7' in his stage in the Cívitas Metropolitan. It is worth it to remember that his aim, when it arrived to Madrid, was to dress the '79', but was not allowed in LaLiga. It tried with the '10', that belonged him to Ángel Correa and finally remained with the '7'.

In the Barcelona group, the '14' was one of the few numbers that remained available after the debut in LaLiga. They have existed a lot of changes regarding the dorsal of the players, especially in the attack. It arrived to think that, in front of the exit of Ansu Fati, the Portuguese went to use the mythical '10', but finally has 'removed' pressure.

The Barça, without 10 this season?

The true is that the Barça is by the work to begin his first season without a player that carry the '10' to his back. It was the number that by long belonged to LionelMessi, but after his exit in 2021 was Ansu Fati the one who assumed the challenge to carry it. Now, after two years, the number remains orphan for the first time. It results an authentic novelty, but also the enésima confirmation of the 'new' stage in the City Condal.
