But where did Ansu Fati go?

A few years ago, before Pedri’s explosion, the appearances of Warren Zaire-Emery, Jamal Musiala, Lamine Yamal or the confirmation of Jude Bellingham, Ansu Fati was probably the biggest prospect of the planet. After a sparkling debut with the FC Barcelona first team, and quickly becoming a Spanish international, he was the designated successor to Lionel Messi. However, injuries, and not the least important ones, crept into his path and considerably slowed down his progress.

Relegated to substitute status at FC Barcelona, ​​he left for Brighton this summer. An interesting bet, since the Spaniard was joining a particularly offensive team renowned for its way of playing, in a context where competition would be less. His debut with Brighton was quite encouraging, without being brilliant. He notably scored against Manchester City in October, and scored in the Seagulls’ two matches against Ajax in the Europa League.

He’s just back

9 Premier League matches, including only one start… Before a new injury… A hamstring problem which kept him away from the field until this weekend, and his return against Crystal Palace, playing a few minutes during of his team’s victory against the Londoners (4-1). A return which, we hope for him, will be definitive. At the same time, there is still question of its future. Sport specifies that the player wants to return to Barcelona at the end of the season, whatever the outcome of this 2023/2024 exercise for him.

But Barça would rather be in favor of a sale. Indeed, in a difficult financial situation, the club wants to capitalize on the good rating that its attacker still retains to recover 30 million euros as indicated Sport. In England, Team Talk even explains that Liverpool are interested, while it cannot be ruled out that Brighton will try to keep him in the event of good performances in this second part of the season. For that, the injuries will have to leave him in peace…
