'I really hope he shines': Fan hails Barcelona’s unsung hero of 2024/25 season
He's been a special weapon for Hansi Flick.
Barcelona suffered a bit of a disappointing 3-2 loss to Villarreal in their final home game of the 2024/25 La Liga season.
However, Fermin Lopez was definitely one of the bright aspects of the Blaugrana as he was able to score an impressive goal for Barca.
The Spaniard took his tally to six goals and four assists in 27 La Liga games this season, as he’s been one of the breakout stars of the 2024/25 campaign.
One Barca fan on Reddit, Maxxxizii, has hailed the impact of Fermin Lopez this season and believes he deserves more credit for his heroics.
Here is what the fan stated: “We really need to talk about Fermin Lopez!. This guy who came outta nowhere has actually struggled a lot to make it in first team anyone who knows his background would be proud of this Guy.
“I genuinely believe he has the potential to become one of the greatest Attacking midfielder and can compete with Musiala in this current generation, Fermin is Gifted we all can see it i think he just needs more attention and focus from our staff.
"He's still young, we as fans should boost his confidence and never let this Guy go ever. I don't think Olmo will be here for long but as long as he is, our staff can look after Fermin and improve him in parts of the games where he lacks.
“I really hope he shines, really really love this Guy and I think he'll be having a feast next season..
"P.S - a lot of people are thinking that I am comparing him with Musiala but I am not.
"As of Today and probably next season, Musiala is clear, He's better in almost every aspect of the game than Fermin. All I am talking about is potential and Yes I think he has the potential to compete with him. It'll take Fermin ATLEAST 2 season to improve himself.”
