Ansu Fati could leave Barcelona in January, with Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr reportedly interested. A transfer would benefit both the player and Barcelona’s strained finances.
Ansu Fati could be set for a January departure from Barcelona, with Saudi Arabian clubs Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr reportedly keen on signing the young forward. The player’s struggles with form, injuries, and limited playing time have sparked speculation about a potential move.
Both Saudi clubs are prepared to make offers for the 21-year-old, which could help resolve Barcelona’s financial difficulties. Club president Joan Laporta is said to be open to the deal, as the funds from Fati’s transfer would provide much-needed relief for the cash-strapped Blaugrana.
Fati has struggled to establish himself in Xavi’s starting lineup, partly due to the fierce competition in Barcelona’s attack and the lingering effects of past injuries. While the recent setbacks are not as severe as those earlier in his career, they have made it difficult for him to regain consistency and confidence.
A move to Saudi Arabia could offer Fati a chance to rebuild his career in a less pressurized environment. The player, still only 21, is eager to play regularly and rediscover the form that once made him one of Europe’s most exciting prospects.
For Barcelona, Fati’s exit would alleviate their financial burden, while for the player, it could provide a fresh start in a league where he would have fewer expectations and more opportunities to shine.
Whether Fati stays to fight for his place in Barcelona’s squad or opts for a new adventure abroad, one thing is certain: the young forward needs regular minutes to continue his development.
