Barcelona has officially announced that their new signing, Rodri, will wear the No. 16 shirt during the 2026/27 season. The Spanish midfielder, 30 years old, previously donned the number while playing for Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, and the Spanish national team. Rodri's arrival at Barcelona has also resulted in the departure of another player wearing the same jersey number.
Fermin Lopez, a La Masia midfielder, previously wore the No. 16 shirt, but with Ferran Torres leaving the club, he has been reassigned to the No. 7 jersey. The No. 16 shirt, which has been familiar territory for Rodri throughout his career, is now available for purchase at the club store. This change comes as Barcelona's squad numbering could undergo further alterations as new players join the team and others potentially alter their roles or depart.
The No. 2 shirt, currently vacant, could become relevant if Barcelona completes a deal to bring Joao Cancelo back to the club.
