Fermin Lopez continued his excellent form this season with both goals as Barcelona beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in their final La Liga fixture before the international break.

The midfielder has taken his tally to eight for the season in all competitions. He has also tallied seven assists for Hansi Flick’s side in 2026-27.

There’s no doubt that Lopez is a key player for Barcelona but he admits he perhaps does not get the same recognition as some of his team-mates.

“It’s a little annoying to always feel undervalued, but on the other hand, I do feel very loved by the club, my teammates, and the fans,” he told Catalunya Radio.

Lopez is certainly a fan favorite and has been dubbed the ‘Ferminator’ due to ability to score and assist. It’s a nickname he certainly enjoys. “I like ‘Ferminator,’ I like that people call me that,” he added.

The Barca star is currently with the Spain squad and will be hoping to feature in upcoming Nations League fixtures against Czechia and England.
