Ansu Fati’s time at Barcelona might be heading towards an unexpected crossroads, as manager Hansi Flick reportedly sees no prominent role for the 21-year-old winger in his future squad plans.
Ansu Fati Faces Uncertain Future as Hansi Flick Leaves Him Out of Barcelona Plans
According to reports from Diario Sport, Barcelona’s coaching team has informed Fati’s agent, Jorge Mendes, that the player has been given fair opportunities to prove himself but remains on the fringes of Flick’s strategy for the season.
Fati, who returned to Barcelona after a challenging loan spell at Brighton & Hove Albion, has been battling persistent fitness issues that have limited his game time to just over two hours this season.
A mix of recurring injuries and fierce competition for attacking roles has kept the La Masia graduate from rediscovering the form that once made him one of the most promising talents in European football.
While Ansu had hoped for a fresh start in Catalunya, it seems Flick’s priorities lie elsewhere, leaving the door open for the Spanish forward to seek playing time beyond Barcelona.
Options could include a move in the upcoming January transfer window, potentially as a loan deal to help him rebuild his form or a permanent transfer if suitable offers come through.
The ultimate choice will rest with Ansu himself, who now faces a crucial decision: to remain at his boyhood club with limited opportunities or to step into a new challenge.
