Millions pour in for Barça, all thanks to Ansu Fati, confirmed, he's leaving Monaco

Ansu Fati's breakout at Monaco changes everything: Barça expects a multimillion-dollar deal, Laporta rubs his hands together

Ansu Fati is experiencing an exceptional moment at Monaco after some difficult months at Barça, where his prominence had completely faded. The forward, who came up through La Masia, needed a change of scenery and the team from the Principality has given him the perfect opportunity to be reborn as a footballer. Although he missed the first four matches due to a lack of match fitness, his mini preseason has allowed him to quickly recover his best form.

Since his Ligue 1 debut, Ansu Fati has shown a brilliant level that recalls the one that dazzled Barcelona fans in his early years. In just five official matches with Monaco, he has already scored six goals, an impressive figure for a player who was looking to rediscover himself. It is true that several of those goals have come from the penalty spot, but what matters is that he has regained the confidence that once led to comparisons with Messi.

The purchase option for Ansu Fati falls short, Barça wants more

Barça is closely following Ansu Fati's performance, aware that his loan could turn into a great business deal. The agreement signed with Monaco includes a purchase option of thirteen million euros, a figure that could soon become obsolete. What is relevant is that this option is not mandatory, which gives the Catalan club full freedom to decide his future.

If Ansu Fati's performance continues on this upward trajectory, Monaco has every reason to execute the permanent purchase. However, Barça could choose to bring him back and take advantage of his new market value to sell him at a much higher price. That move would allow the club to obtain significant financial gain, especially in a context where smart operations are essential to balance the books.

Ansu Fati sparks madness in the Premier League

Ansu Fati's impact in Ligue 1 has been immediate and his name is once again making waves in the European market. His performance in France  has attracted the interest of several Premier League teams, including Everton, Newcastle, and Crystal Palace. All three have reportedly already contacted his camp to learn about the conditions of a possible transfer and Barça's room for negotiation.

The strategy of the Catalan team seems clear: let Monaco continue to develop Ansu Fati and hope that his value keeps rising. This way, Barça could take advantage of English competition to raise the final price and obtain a considerable sum from his sale. In any scenario, the Catalan club would come out ahead, whether through a direct sale to Monaco or a more lucrative transfer to England.
