With the side, the aim of the 'summit' is to clear the remaining details to define his new agreement and inscribe him in the first team. LaLiga Has done all the possible to block the new agreements of players like Gavi, Ronald Araújo and Iñaki Crag alleging insufficiency in the margin salarial. In fact, only the mediocentro could update his index card in winter, happening to dress the dorsal '8' this month.

What himself is sure is that the operation will not be official until the beginning of the 2023/24, once the Barça attain to resolve his problems with the 'fair play' financial closing a considerable sale.
In 'case Ansu', much more complex
In this sense, the 'summit' with Jorge Mendes has another key point on the table: the future of Ansu Fati.

Ansu Earns near of 3 million net euros to the year and, in the 2022/23, his performance has been underneath of the expected, although it is rescatable the one who have not suffered injuries up to now. Fati Great 6 and 3 assistances in 21 official apparitions (1,127 minutes), but has not attained to ensure the titularity and, even in front of the drop of Ousmane Dembélé, Raphinha seems to have him won the particular duel to eyes of Xavi Hernández. Nevertheless, the Barça will not take decisions to the end of season.
