Ansu Fati was 16 years old when he was already breaking records at Barcelona.

In 2021, the unthinkable happened: he inherited the number 10 shirt, the same one Messi had left vacant when he moved to PSG. The weight of that number had crushed many before him, but no one imagined that injuries—and not pressure—would be the ones to clip his wings. Surgeries, rehabilitation, entire months away from the pitch as his name gradually faded. Today he plays on loan at Monaco, where he began to show flashes of that unstoppable kid.

But the real surprise came off the field: alongside producer Gambinoalaprod and with the support of his teammate Paul Pogba, he recorded ‘Sea Como Sea’, his first track as a music artist. It has already surpassed one million views on YouTube. He thus became the first Barcelona footballer to officially launch himself as an independent artist. 🎶 He even allowed himself to dream out loud of seeing his name on the blaugrana shirt, this time as a music sponsor. ‘Why not dream big,’ he said himself.
