FC Porto has officially approached Barcelona with a proposal to provide Ansu Fati, according to a recent report by Pedro Almeida.
Ansu’s future in Barcelona has become an important topic of discussion recently, with several European clubs that express interest in the young striker.
Teams like Benfica, Ajax, Besiktas and Fenerbahce have been linked to him, and now FC Porto has entered the image.
Porto’s interest in Ansu could be connected to his own player, Nico González, being a goal for Manchester City.
While Ansu may not be an identical replacement for González, their attack qualities would still offer Porto a significant impulse. His transfer to Porto could help fill the void left by González, providing a very necessary depth to his squad.
What is the position of Barcelona?
For Barcelona, the situation with Ansu is becoming increasingly urgent, since the club seeks the correct solution with respect to its future.
Barcelona has made a final push to his agent, Jorge Mendes, urging him to ensure a movement where the young striker can feel as an important figure in his new club.
This is seen as a necessary step for all the parties involved, with Barcelona in the hope of seeing the striker flourish in another place while finding a club where it can be a regular headline.
Barcelona’s position has been clear from before Christmas. The sports director ofco had conversations with Mendes, encouraging him to find a new club for the player, while the manager Hansi Flick explained the situation regarding his limited role in Barcelona.
Ansu knows that he has no future in Barcelona
Although the striker knows that he will not have a significant game time in Barcelona, both the film and his coaching staff have committed to help him improve his physical condition if he stays with the team.
Mendes is handling the interest of several Turkish clubs for Ansu, but is also considering options in Portugal, and some clubs also show interest.
In addition, there have been consultations of Spanish teams. Mendes respects Ansu’s wishes, but he is also fully aware that regular game time is crucial for the development of the young player and the future race.
