The Barça finalizes the renewal of Ansu Fati

Barça is in a hurry to renew Ansu Fati, the pillar of the sports reconstruction of the club. He is in a hurry to ensure the continuity of the 18-year-old forward, who has had an immediate impact on the team after being injured for 11 months, establishing himself as the club’s new sporting and commercial reference.

If possible before the classic against Madrid and the resumption of the assembly of delegates, which will be the next 23, much better.

The owner of 10

Ansu, which has been surveyed by the big European clubs when they found that his contract expired in 2022 although Barça maintained that it could extend it, unilaterally, until 2024, has always maintained its idea of ​​not leaving the Camp Nou. That is why he agreed, after consultation with the captains, to wear the 10 he wore Messi for a decade. And he has also wanted to stay out of any offer from other clubs.

Already in the summer of 2020, Manchester United became interested in Ansu. But neither Barça nor he wanted to listen to those proposals that came far from the Camp Nou. Laporta has set himself as an absolute priority to maintain the skeleton of the young people to promote the reconstruction of Barça. Hence German will travel to Portugal to finalize in that meeting with Mendes the keys to the first great contract of Ansu Fati, already become the offensive leader of the team.
