Barça are considering the departure of Ansu Fati in January as he needs minutes and consistency. Sevilla are reportedly interested in the '10' and would try to sign him on loan
Ansu Fati's future at FC Barcelona is up in the air because the player is not having the continuity he expected when he decided to stay at the club last summer. For that reason, the club and the forward will begin talks in the coming weeks to find a solution to the situation of the '10', who already has a loan offer from Sevilla on the table to complete the season at Nervión.
Barça decided to bet on Fati's continuity in the team due to the impossibility of signing another attacker due to the salary limit and the confidence that the player generated in Hansi Flick during the preseason. However, the plantar fasciitis that kept him on the sidelines for more than a month 'stood to a halt' and it has been difficult for him to find form again, lacking rhythm due to the lack of minutes as he is the attacker with the least playing time in the first team.
Barça would open the door for him in the winter transfer market
Although the Catalan club will be reluctant to part with players in January if they do not return to the 1/1 rule, they could make an exception in the case of Ansu. The club is aware that a blank season would cause the player's value to 'collapse', so the idea is to find him a team where he can have minutes and regularity to rediscover his best version.
It is in this scenario where Sevilla's option begins to gain momentum. The Andalusians already tried to sign him last summer, with García Pimienta as a great supporter of the player in Nervión. The coach knows him from the Barça youth system and made it clear that he would be fundamental in his scheme, although finally his departure was 'truncated' by the refusal of the Catalans and the low economic proposal offered by the Sevillians.
However, things could be different in winter. Fati needs to play and feel important in a project in which he feels comfortable. In addition, those around him consider the Sánchez-Pizjuán to be the ideal place to gain continuity and recover his best form, while in Seville his incorporation would be a perfect fit given the lack of goals in the squad, so the next few matches seem key to defining the future of the player.
