Some thought that this 2024/2025 season was going to be that of return to thanks to Ansu Fati. Back after a more than means loan on the side of Brighton, the Spanish striker returned to the fold and even, according to the Spanish press, impressed Hansi Flick and the staff during the first off -season training. But very quickly, the number 10 of Barça was caught up in reality: repeated injuries and far too large competition, and above all, fairly mediocre performances when the German coach gave him a chance.
The former German coach was even very clear with him. He already told him in private that he was not in his plans on the second part of the season, and even confirmed it publicly at a press conference a few days ago, adding that the decision to stay or leave will come back to the player: “For me, it is important to be honest with the players. I was honest with him. It is his decision. We talked about the possibilities he has. If he wants to stay, very well. He comes from the Masia. We will take care of him ”.
Ansu Fati clings
If Flick has been measured enough at a press conference, among leaders, we want to be more aggressive and we hope to be able to separate from Ansu Fati from this winter. The departure of the player who only participated in four liga games this season would be able to bring Marcus Rashford, the number 1 goal of the Catalan club for the winter transfer window. But as indicated Sportthere is no intention of leaving.
Mundo Deportivo Even confirms that during this recent meeting between the player and the coach, the first would have confirmed his desire to stay and try to win. It should also be noted that his substantial salary, obtained when he was considered the biggest hope of the club, does not necessarily push other clubs to position themselves seriously. A situation that annoys the Catalans, who do not hesitate to express their dissatisfaction with Ansu Fati on social networks.
