Fermin Lopez has returned from injury in time for the start of the 2026-27 season and has shone in Barcelona’s opening four games of the campaign.
The 23-year-old has four goals and two assists from four matches to help fire Hansi Flick’s side to the top of the table with a perfect record.
Radio Marca journalist David Sanchez has been full of praise for Fermin and thinks the Spain star’s impressive form for Barcelona means he’s now worth an absolute fortune.
“We talk a lot about Lamine Yamal, Raphinha,
Rodri, and Pedri. Keep an eye on Fermín López,” he said. “A player with a minimum value of 150 million euros.
“If Atlético de Madrid fans were outraged with Barça’s €100 million offer for Julián Álvarez, imagine how Barça fans must have felt last season when they found out Chelsea was offering €40 million for Fermín.
“He’s an outstanding player, a regular starter for Barça and the national team, with attacking prowess, grit, passion, heart, assists, and a prolific goal scorer.”
Fermin’s injury at the end of last season forced him out of the World Cup, and the Barca star has admitted it was the “worst summer of his career.”
However, he’s bounced back quickly from that heartbreaking setback and is helping lead the charge for the Catalans in the early weeks of the campaign.
