Lionel Messi's legacy is a significant one at Barcelona, and it begins with the fact that no-one wants to take his legendary No.10 shirt.
Sergio Aguero, close friend of the new Paris Saint-Germain forward, has confirmed that it will not be him, as he announced that he will wear the No.19.
"Nobody's going to wear the number 10, no? Nobody's brave enough," influencer Ibai Llanos said in a Twitch stream with Gerard Pique.
"Well, I think someone will have to, I told Kun to wear it, but he's not sure," Pique responded.
Now, via a post on social media, Aguero has confirmed that he has ignored Pique's suggestion.

Even Leo’s best friend Aguero who formerly wore the number at mancity doesn’t want to touch the number 10 Jersey, the expections and pressure that will come with the number will be immense. The legacy is unrepeatable 😭😭

Coutinho wore number 14 upon he’s arrival to FC Barcelona. The next season he was handed the number 7 because of the departure of Arda Turan. The next season Coutinho was loaned to FC Bayern for a season and inherited Ajern Robben’s number 10. The next season, Coutinho came back and discovered he’s vacated number 7 was handed to Antoine Griezemann in a agreement that saw him take back he’s first FC Barcelona jersey number 14. Coutinho wore the number 14 jersey last season and now the number has been given to Rey Manaj, leaving Coutinho unregistered to play in La Liga for now. The world was taken by surprise when Lionel Messi left FC Barcelona for PSG in a sale to help FC Barcelona’s economic crisis and register free transfers such as Memphis Depay, Eric Garcia and Sergio Aguero. Each of the three individuals respectfully have taken numbers 9, 24 and 19 which leaves one number left by the already mentioned Lionel Messi. The question remains on everyone’s mind. Will Coutinho take the number 10 jersey that has been refused to be taken by anyone else in order to play this season FC Barcelona? Who knows. Only time will tell. This has been Liverpool supporter. I hope all you AFers have a good day.
