Ansu Fati, who was once the great hope of FC Barcelona, is currently living one of the most difficult moments of his career. Lack of continuity in the team, constant injuries and the club's mistrust have marked a before and after in his promising career. Despite his flashes of talent, the young star of FC Barcelona has failed to convince Flick, who has barely given him any minutes this season.
The constant interruptions in his development, added to his latest physical setback, have led Barcelona to consider a permanent exit. He received the last blow a few weeks ago, when a muscle injury will keep him off the field for at least a month. This casualty seems to have been the breaking point for the Barça board, tired of the attacker's repeated absences.
Although Ansu Fati was once seen as Lionel Messi's successor, his opportunities have been running out. Injuries, his biggest problem, have plagued the striker since his breakthrough in the first team, taking their toll on both his confidence and that of his coaches. They no longer see it possible for him to have continuity at the club in the short term and think it would be best for him to leave.
Atlético is No Longer in the Race, if Fenerbahce
In this context, Jorge Mendes , his agent, has been looking for options to revitalize his career. The influential Portuguese agent has found an interesting possibility in Fenerbahçe , a team managed by José Mourinho . The Portuguese coach would be willing to offer him a place in the Turkish club, where he could rediscover his best version.
The Turkish league, which is less physically demanding than the Spanish league, could be a suitable environment for Ansu to regain his competitive rhythm without so much pressure. Mourinho , famous for recovering talents in complex situations, believes that it could help him reach his full potential. The Portuguese would look favorably on a talent like Ansu Fati and Fenerbahce could be an interesting team for him.
The medical department advises against his arrival
Interestingly, some time ago, the Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid also showed interest in Ansu Fati . Cholo saw the Barça winger as a potential reinforcement, but the player's medical situation has raised doubts in the Madrid club. Atlético 's doctors don't consider his transfer advisable due to concerns about his physical fragility.
The option of a move to the Spanish capital has thus vanished, and Ansu seems to have fewer and fewer options on the European scene. Sevilla was another option that both Ansu and his closest entourage have considered, but it doesn't seem to be feasible. Ansu 's salary is unattainable for the Nervion team, Ansu earns around 7 million net per year, and Atlético doesn't want him for those amounts either.
