Dropping from 1 billion euros to 15 million, young star Ansu Fati's fate is in turmoil

(NLDO) - Once considered the future of Barcelona with a contract release fee of 1 billion euros, Ansu Fati now only hopes that Monaco will spend 15 million to save his career.

If he joins Ligue 1 with Monaco, this will be a big turning point in the career of Ansu Fati, the young talent once considered the "successor" of Lionel Messi at Barcelona.

This Guinea-Bissau-born player, who currently holds Spanish nationality, is one of the few talented faces that Barcelona highly appreciates, setting a contract release clause of up to 100 million euros in 2021 to avoid the attention of big teams in Europe.

The day Ansu Fati leaves Nou Camp is near

Injuries have slowed down the career of "child prodigy" Ansu Fati, and his form has declined rapidly. He was loaned to Brighton in the Premier League but did not leave much of an impression.

Returning to Barcelona, ​​Ansu Fati failed to convince coach Hansi Flick, who greatly admired the talent of this 22-year-old star.

Ansu Fati's statistics this season make fans feel sad and regretful. Fati only played 9 matches in all competitions, of which only 1 match was a starter. Total playing time was only 191 minutes, no goals, no assists.

Since the beginning of 2025, the situation has gotten worse for Fati when he was only used twice, including playing 28 minutes against Barbastro in the King's Cup and just 5 minutes at the end of the match against Dortmund in the Champions League group stage.

Will Ansu Fati's bleak future turn around at Monaco?

Although his contract with the Spotify Camp Nou team is still until June 2027, Fati was forced to request a contract termination instead of continuing to be loaned out everywhere. He wants to be free to find a new destination to rebuild his career.

Moving to Monaco could be a chance for Fati to start over in a less stressful environment, while also helping him find his passion for football after a turbulent time at Barcelona.

Whether he joins Monaco on a permanent transfer or on a season-long loan with an option to buy, any deal would cost around €15m.

The deal between Barcelona and Monaco is likely to be completed next week after Ansu Fati returns from his summer vacation.
