Ansu Fati, eager for revenge: Barça trusts in his resurgence

Ansu Fati is going through one of his most complicated moments at FC Barcelona. The forward has remained unused since January 4, when he played 28 minutes in the azulgrana victory against Barbastro in the Copa del Rey. Since then, the player has accumulated 10 consecutive matches without dressing up, and even missed the squad list in 6 of them.

His continuity at the Catalan club was in question throughout the winter window, as the culés tried to offload him until the last moment. However, the academy player remained firm in his desire to stay in the City of Barcelona, and although the outlook is not very encouraging, at Can Barça they still hope to see the best version of a player whose emergence in the first team has generated great excitement among the fans.

According to 'SPORT', Hansi Flick values Ansu's decision to fight for a place in his team, and, along with the sports management, they trust that the '10' can return to being the one who was poised to take over from Lionel Messi as the face of the institution in the future.

Ansu is working hard to earn minutes at Barça

The Catalans have seen a change in Fati, who in recent weeks has stepped up and shown himself to be much more active, working with greater intensity to match the level of his teammates. "It is common for him to stay shooting at goal after training sessions," club sources stated, where they maintain that "he wants to fight to be important again at Barça and hopefully he succeeds because he was a great player who has been greatly affected by injuries."

In this regard, from Spotify Camp Nou they believe that the plantar fasciitis suffered by the forward during preseason hindered his progression too much. The player returned to the City of Barcelona after finishing his loan at Brighton and was determined to earn a spot in Flick's squad, but this unfortunate setback kept him away from the first team until the end of September, and since then, he has only played 186 minutes this season spread over eight matches.

However, the effort that the player has made in recent weeks could bear fruit, and the German coach would be considering granting him minutes in one of the upcoming matches. It is evident that Ansu's problem is not physical but mental, and within Barça they believe that a goal could kickstart the redemption path for a player that no one wants to give up on.
