Ansu Fati was announced as leaving, after several British and Iberian clubs had already expressed their interest.
FC Barcelona are looking to sign a new striker, which could lead to the departure of some players including Ansu Fati. This young striker, who had been one of Hansi Flick’s bets, did not live up to expectations. The coach even showed him the door by sidelining him for three games, making him understand that he was not putting in enough effort on the field. Faced with this situation, Fati decided to leave the club.
Fati wants to stay
Ansu Fati has told Flick that he wants to stay at least until the summer according to Mundo Deportivo. He sought advice from the coach to improve, and Flick advised him to play with the same confidence and freedom he demonstrates in practice. According to a source close to the club, Flick told Ansu that he liked him, but expected him to display a higher level of play, given his potential. In a constructive tone, the Barça coach encouraged Fati to overcome his fear of failure and play without restraint. He highlighted how Fati is often impressive and a threat in training, while asking him to replicate that confidence on the pitch. Ansu received this advice with positivity and is determined to improve his performance. As a reminder, Fati returned to the squad for the Champions League match against Benfica, even if he did not play.
