Fenerbahçe's José Mourinho wants to be one of the main protagonists in the final stretch of the current winter transfer market. The renowned Portuguese coach has been focusing his attention on one of the most promising talents in European soccer to strengthen the Turkish team for the second half of the season. Since Mourinho landed on Fenerbahçe's bench with the main challenge of taking them to the top, he has been demanding key signings to meet expectations.
In this regard, Mourinho has decided to scout the market again and has set his sights on a young Barça star who has already lost all prominence. The proposal has already reached the offices of the Catalan club, which looks favorably on the potential departure of this player. Obviously, at Barça, they know that the need to sell and make room in the squad is present, so they don't want to miss this opportunity at all.
Revolution in the squad
José Mourinho has been gradually improving Fenerbahçe's current squad with players like Anderson Talisca, Diego Carlos, or Milan Škriniar himself. However, after having seen his team on the field and, in addition, having focused enough on the defensive line, the Portuguese coach has made a decision. Mourinho has already conveyed to the Turkish club's sports management that he needs more "firepower" and, therefore, must go to the market again.
In this regard, he seeks to strengthen his team's offensive line with a quality player who provides both speed and creativity on the field. At Fenerbahçe, they believe that the squad also needs a couple of adjustments to make the definitive leap to the elite and are willing to fulfill the coach's wish. Therefore, they have already contacted FC Barcelona, which has shown willingness to listen to offers for this player whose future has been very uncertain for a long time.
Offensive for this talent
According to the latest information circulating around Barça, the key signing Mourinho has demanded is Ansu Fati. The Portuguese coach believes that the young Barça striker is the ideal option to increase Fenerbahçe's competition, and his interest comes at a crucial moment for FC Barcelona. Mourinho sees Ansu as a special forward despite his constant injuries, while the Catalan club sees in this possible operation a golden opportunity to obtain key liquidity.
Certainly, Hansi Flick's technical staff has already made it clear to the young Spanish striker that he has no place in Barça's squad. Therefore, Ansu Fati doesn't see a stint in the Turkish league unfavorably, especially if José Mourinho is the coach. The latter believes he can help Ansu regain his best form and, therefore, relaunch his career as a star.
