Ansu Fati has an extraordinary talent, but after many injuries he still cannot reach the top form. The 20-year-old has made 20 La Liga appearances this season, scoring three goals and providing three assists. To this should be added two goals in the Copa del Rey and one in the Spanish Super Cup, but all this is definitely not enough to earn a place in the starting XI of Barca.
Fati failed the most in the absence of Robert Lewandowski, suspended for three matches. Then he appeared from the first minute in all three matches without the Pole, in which the only thing he added to his achievements was a yellow card. Therefore, the 20-year-old Spanish representative remains in Xavi’s team as a reserve, and Lewandowski, Ousmane Dembele and Raphinha have much higher ratings than him. Add to that the fact that Barca are playing more and more games with a four-man midfielder, Fati’s chances to play are mainly due to injuries to Dembele and Sergio Busquets.
Barcelona could sell Ansu Fati. There is one condition
The new information was reported on Tuesday by the Catalan daily Sport. Well, FC Barcelona is indeed willing to consider selling Ansu Fati in the summer, but only on one condition – if the player himself applies for a transfer to another club.
According to journalists, the Camp Nou club is aware of the noise caused by the surroundings of a player who is not a Barcelona main player, and which at the same time attracts interest from other big clubs. The agent of footballer Jorge Mendes is standing in the blocks for the next big deal if needed.
However, Barca does not intend to look for a new employer for Fati and rush him to a transfer. For now, the club hopes that Ansu Fati will still manage to get in good enough condition to play much more in Xavi Hernandez’s team.
Therefore, if Fati were to be transferred, the player himself must want to leave the Camp Nou. Then Barcelona will enter into negotiations, which, if successful, would allow it a considerable financial breather in the form of around 80-90 million euros. Everything indicates that much in this matter may be clarified at the end of this season, depending on the attitude of Ansu Fati in the matches of FC Barcelona, still fighting on three fronts.
