According to "World Sports News", Barcelona's Champions League game against Chelsea this week has special meaning for Fermin.
As early as before the deadline of the summer window, Chelsea launched a fierce pursuit of Fermin, but the Blues obviously made the wrong calculation. Chelsea only sent an offer of 40 million euros at the time, especially considering that Chelsea often spends a lot of money to introduce players whose influence is far less than Ferming. Fermin is looking forward to going to Stamford Bridge, but he just wants to enter the dressing room there as a visiting player.
Fermin’s start to the season was actually not smooth. At the beginning of the season, head coach Flick issued a warning to him, but this only inspired him to have stronger fighting spirit.
In the game against Athletic Bilbao, Fermin ushered in his 100th game milestone on behalf of the Barcelona first team. At only 22 years old, he handed over a dominant data sheet: in just 66 minutes of playing time, he not only scored a goal, but also forced the opponent's core Sansette to get a red card in anger through a sharp breakthrough. Data shows that he contributed 7 steals and 5 dribbles, showing his terrifying efficiency in offense and defense.
The most astonishing thing is his efficiency data. Although in Flick's system, Fermin's playing time only ranked 11th on the team, with a total of 818 minutes, he scored 11 goals in 12 games, including 7 goals and 4 assists. This plug-and-play attribute makes him an invisible killer for Barcelona.
