- Fermin Lopez is a name you will hear more and more with each passing year. In this video, Fanatico channel will explain why this La Masia player will be a global breakthrough in the coming seasons, how Hansi Flick is planning to transform Fermin and why this player can impress everyone at upcoming Euros! Let's go!
Speedrunning the game
There is only one reason why Fermin Lopez is not being talked about as one of Europe's greatest talents. It is because he broke into big football not at the age of 16 or 17, but at 20.
Most fans are used to top talents proving themselves in their teens. This is especially true for Barcelona fans, who have been watching 17-year-old Gavi and 16-year-old Yamal. For them, 20 years is already a football retirement.
Fermin is undeservedly limited by fans and media attention only because his development was NORMAL. Gavi and Yamal are anomalies, not a pattern.
Lopez's progress in professional football is impressive. Back in the 2022/23 season, no one knew about the boy. Barcelona loaned the academy player to Linares Deportivo, a third tier club of the Spanish football, where he played for a year.
During this period, Fermin gained important experience. Over the course of the season, he scored 12 goals and made 4 assists in 40 matches, playing as a ten and left winger. Originally a central midfielder, the experience of playing closer to the attack will come in handy in the future.
However, it is difficult to say whether Barcelona saw any prospects in the player. Historically, those La Masia talents who have a chance to play in the first team get their chance right away without being loaned out.
This was the case with Puyol, Xavi, Iniesta, Messi, Pedro, Busquets. There are very few examples of a player going through a loan spell and becoming a key player for Barcelona.
Well, Fermin has set out to break this tradition. At least, the way he performed in his first season with Barca exceeded all expectations.
Before the start of the campaign, Xavi decided to bring Lopez into the first team as a rotation player. Fermín started getting his chances very quickly, taking advantage of injuries to the main players.
The second half of the season was especially good for him. Fermin not only began playing more from the start, but also got into scoring. For comparison: before the new year, he had 1 goal and 1 assist - both of which came in the Champions League match against Shakhtar.
While in the second half of the season, Lopez scored 10 goals, turning into an important player in Xavi's team. Moreover, Fermín averaged a goal every 173 minutes for Barça last season, which is a great figure for a midfielder.
Fermín is a treasure of a player and a person. I told him that if he wants to, he can stay at Barça for many years. Almost no one knew Fermín a few months ago, and now he has practically earned a starting spot. He’s hard-working and a top professional, - the coach praised Lopez.
In the end, with 11 goals, Fermín became Barça's joint second top scorer along with Ferran Torres. He scored more than the likes of Yamal, Raphinha or Felix. Not bad, isn't it?

Fermin himself emphasizes Xavi's role in his progress and is grateful for his faith: Xavi made my dream come true. My family and I will always be grateful to him, - says the player.
The impressive end of the season not only raised the hype around the player to an unprecedented level, but Fermin got into the provisional squad of the Spanish national team for the Euros. This was his first call-up, and the 21-year-old midfielder can head straight to a major tournament.
Potential Euro 2024 sensation
At the end of the season, there were many rumors about whether Furia Roja's coach Luis de la Fuente would risk taking a debutant to such a big tournament.
This is a question for Luis de la Fuente. If it was up to me, I would take Fermín to war. I would take him to the national team, no doubt, - Xavi said at the end of the season.
After all, Fermin was included in the expanded squad of 29 players who have a chance to go to the Euros. All he has to do is not to be among the 3 players that the coach will eventually remove from the roster.
Fermín is playing at a very high level, but we have to be cautious. With the national team, many players give another plus and we are sure that he will show us what a great player he is, - spoke about the midfielder Luis de la Fuente.
In fact, Fermin really showed what a great player he is in his first match for the national team. In a friendly against Andorra, he replaced Pedri and made an assist on Ferran Torres. Although the opponent was not the strongest, and Spain won 5-0, it was a great start for the debutant.
After the game, Spain announced the final squad for the Euros, and Fermin made it successfully. Pau Cubarsí, Aleix García, and Marcos Llorente were the 3 players that were left out of the roster.

ferminho lopez alredy key playr barc
Barcelona does an incredible job grooming young talent till 16-18 Then do a horrible job of managing their growth, and get them injured by rushing them too much.... Imagine if they waited until the age of 19 or 20 before all the injured players of the past two seasons started dropping like Flies...
Fermin got his game time managed right. Cant said the same to pedri and gavi. Yamal had too much game time imo. Cubarsi also had too much game time considering his rise is very recent
😊❤😊❤😊❤😊😊
Imagine knowing what you're talking about xD What you're talking about is an anomaly. Hundreds of players have been managed correctly, you just know a couple of recent cases.
@@navirbox4913 Got you, so you say there is no issue, for some reason I don't remember 16 and 17 year olds in the 80s 90s and 2000s, and seems like a new phenomenon, but I don't really care, I just thought it was an obvious thing to point out, I am far from being a Barcelona or Spain fan. 👍
Fermin 💙❤️🫡
I wish him injury-free career...
