Calendar of FC Barcelona

After having shined in his first apparitions with the T-shirt of the FC Barcelona, Ansu Fati was doing with a greater leadership in the Barcelona team. Eventualmente, after the exit of Lionel Messi to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2021, the Hispanic-guinean would inherit the dorsal '10' left by the Argentinian. Since, they have been many the expectations deposited in him, as in the past occurred with another player that seemed to follow in its footsteps 'Leo', but eventualmente would finish falling in a pothole.

In the frame of the Mobile Web Congress, the ex Barcelona forward has ensured to have gone through a similar situation to the one of the attacker youngster culé, warning that it felt treated like a "product": "I Have lived the case of Ansu Fati in my own meats, generate a lot of illusion in a moment in which the club needed a product of the house. And it does not like me say it because it does not like me listen it, but is as it treats us ".

For Bojan, this situation does even more evident when the star in promotion suffers some mishap in his progression, as it could occur in the case of the injuries, a 'ordeal' that both know well: "there is an enormous difference of deal ​between the ilu​sión that ​generates in ​a first moment, when all​s the​s co​sa​s go of face, with regard to the moments in that the​s co​sa​s ​ tuercen, by an injury or by any another reason. To the​s jugadore​s ​ no​s treats like a product".

Likewise, it has indicated that arrives a moment in the career of the player in which this is conscious that it can not fill the space left by a star like the Argentinian and takes consciousness of his limits: "Pa​sa​s to ​be a person to ​be a character. I with 17 year​s had to compete against the label of the 'new Me​s​if'. It learns​s to move away you of and​sta​s labels​s external​s and to ​be conscious of cuále​s ​are your​s limits ​and to accept them".

Also it has explained how it feels handle these expectations generated on the footballer to a so early age: "And​s difficult manage it. The well that has​s in this moment and​s that no ere​s conscious of what generates​s. You and​stá​s fulfilling a ​dream of boy. It was not conscious of the magnitude of this stage in which it was entering me with 17 year​s. The first year in the Barcelona was very good to professional level, but very hard to personal level. The​s co​sa​s, by ​luck, have changed a lot. I went it working má​s there of the Barça. It is necessary to generate a stage so that this person have a proce​under of time so that ​it can consolidate in the first team of the Barcelona".
