FERMIN LOPEZ has shared a touching moment with his gran after Barcelona’s 5-2 win against Betis.
Lopez‘s gran handed him a jacket after the 23-year-old gifted his warm-up shirt to a young Barcelona fan in the stands.
She was seen reaching out to hand over a black jacket after sharing a hug and a kiss on the cheek after the LaLiga clash.
The attacking midfielder was then asked about the role his gran has played in his development as a professional footballer in a video on X.
A topless Lopez said: “She’s a very important part of my life and I’m really happy she’s here at the match.
“I love her very much and she’s always there for me, honestly.”
The heartwarming moment came after Lopez played 62 minutes for Barcelona, picking up a first-half yellow card.
Having already given up his number 16 jersey for Rodri before the season began, the pair teamed up with Lopez providing an assist to put the visitors back ahead moments before half-time.
This gave Barcelona confidence as Gabriel Jesus, Eric Garcia, and Dani Olmo all scored to confirm a dominant win against Betis.
Lopez’s gran has become an instant fan-favourite among Barcelona fans as they share their support on social media.

Another shared: “Meemaws are the sweetest.”
A third fan commented: “Grannies are golden.”
While a fourth fan has praised Lopez’s morals and commitment to his family, posting: “I just love Fermin so much and all that young man represents.”
His admirers have extended into the Premier League, with Manchester United showing significant interest in the attacking midfielder last year.
His strong form has continued this season, scoring a goal in Barcelona’s 4-1 Champions League win over Galatasaray on Tuesday night.
