‘Fermin “The Deboner”‘: Fan invents creative nickname for the young Barca midfielder

“If Ferran [Torres] is a shark, Fermin is a piranha,” Barca fan atn420 writes.

“The kid has a killer instinct, and he places himself where he needs to be, and is very aggressive – not in a shark way, but in a piranha way. Vicious, calculated, will strip you to the bone quicker than you will realise, and hungry for more with a relentless appetite.

“If not for the woodwork [against Shakhtar], he would have significantly feasted.”

This sounds like the perfect description of Fermin. He was always a threat to the opposition against Shakhtar Donetsk and could’ve left the pitch with multiple goal contributions.

The 20-year-old should now think of starting a fish band with Ferran Torres at Barca! A shark, a piranha… who’s next?
