Hansi Flick’s debut at Barcelona has been quite successful. With two wins in two games and a Flick touch that is starting to take shape, Barça has started its season on solid foundations. However, the German coach is not exactly spoiled by his management, with only two reinforcements – Dani Olmo and Pau Victor – and an Olmo who has still not been able to register to play in La Liga.
The former German coach knows that he may have to make do with these two arrivals alone, and that he may therefore have to call on players who are less expected this season. Marc Bernal and Marc Casado have already started in La Liga this season, while another player, more experienced and considered undesirable by his management, should also benefit from some playing time upon his return from injury. This is Ansu Fati.
Flick counts on Fati
Indeed, the management wanted to part with him to save money and try to get into the financial fair play rules of La Liga. He was coveted by Sevilla in particular. But as indicated SportFlick wants to keep it and use it this season. “I hope he gets back to his pre-season level, we have to take care of him”the German coach confided on Saturday evening, after the success against Athletic.
The newspaper actually explains that Fati, who is coming off a rather average loan at Brighton, could be a very useful player in the squad. The Catalan press had also painted a rather flattering portrait of the player during the first summer training sessions, explaining that he was very sharp and that he had surprised – in a good way – many people internally. And what if 2024/2025 was the season of rebirth for Fati?
