Time passes and Ansu Fati is increasingly clear that he no longer has a place in Barça under Hansi Flick. The young striker from the Catalan club has lost all kinds of prominence under the orders of the German coach, who no longer considers him an important player in his squad. Therefore, Jorge Mendes wants to get Ansu Fati out of Barça as soon as possible due to a noticeable lack of prominence and quality minutes.
The renowned Portuguese agent has already devised a plan for Ansu to leave the club without harming any of the parties. In fact, both Deco and Laporta have been alert to Jorge Mendes's strategy to find a new destination for the youth player in order to find a solution. In that sense, Mendes aims to get Ansu out of FC Barcelona next winter transfer market and not in this summer transfer market.
Marked roadmap
The lack of time to maneuver and close a potential exit for Ansu Fati at this stage of the market has condemned any possible signing. Marcus Rashford was one of the main players circulating around Barça, but without carrying out an operation involving Ansu, the outlook is complex. However, to not harm the Catalan club for the next transfer market, Jorge Mendes already has an idea in mind.
According to the latest information circulating around FC Barcelona, the idea of the Portuguese representative is to include Ansu Fati in an exchange with another of his players. From the circle of the culé striker, they view a change of scenery favorably and are willing to accept any destination as long as Ansu has prominence. Now everything is in Barça's hands, and it's Deco who will decide if this player is convincing enough to exchange him for Ansu.
New signing in sight?
Everything points to the player Jorge Mendes has proposed to get Ansu out of Barça is Diogo Costa, the current goalkeeper of Porto. The Portuguese agent believes he is an ideal option to strengthen the Catalan club's goalkeeping and be the natural successor to Ter Stegen. The German goalkeeper is recovering from an injury, and the young age of the Portuguese goalkeeper is one of the strong points that Mendes defends.
However, despite good reports about Diogo Costa at Barça, the reality is that for Deco, reinforcing the goalkeeping is not a priority at the moment. The culé sporting director is clear that if Ansu leaves, it is to fill that space with another player of greater relevance. Even so, Jorge Mendes continues to insist on the operation and will try to convince both parties to close the deal in the coming months.
