Fermín's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, Fermín was used in rotation for Barcelona in the La Liga: 6 appearances and 447 minutes, averaging 75 minutes per outing. His standout number is goals — 4, 61st of 978 midfielders and inside the top 6%.

Per 90 minutes that is 2.2 key passes per 90, 0.4 assists per 90 and 1.8 ball recoveries per 90 — the rate profile behind Fermín's totals. The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against midfielders, Fermín sits in the top 1% for assists but only the top 40% for shot conversion.

Set against Fermín's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he has managed 12 in a season before, so 4 is well short of his own mark; he is playing far less than he once did — 636 minutes against 2926 at his peak; his average match rating has slipped from 7.05 to 6.39 since 2025/26. Our records cover 4 seasons of Fermín's career, 2023/24 to 2026/27, all of it at Barcelona. In that time he has played 150 matches across 4 competitions, 7,318 minutes in all.

His best return on our records was 17 assists in 2025/26, from 48 appearances. He is 7 appearances into the current one. Fermín has 32 appearances in UEFA Champions League on our records, and he is modestly more productive in Europe - 0.44 per 90 domestically against 0.52 in Europe.

Fermín has reached 8 assists in a season 2 times, between 2024/25 and 2025/26 — a level held rather than found once. On our positional score Fermín rates 37 out of 100, 38th of 326 qualified players — inside the top 12%. Relative to what each component is worth, his strongest is assist rate.
