Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with Ansu Fati, and it has now emerged how much the Barcelona forward would cost the Gunners or Spurs.

Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur linked with Barcelona forward Ansu Fati

La Vanguardia reported in February that Arsenal and Tottenham are interested in signing Fati from Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

The report claimed interest in the 20-year-old forward from Bayern Munich as well.

Described as “extraordinary” by Barcelona head coach Xavi in October 2022, Fati is on the radar of Newcastle United, too.

Mundo Deportivo reported in April that Tottenham, Manchester United and Bayern all want to sign Fati from Barcelona in the summer of 2023.

Jorge Mendes working on potential £61m transfer deal

And it now seems that Fati’s agent, Jorge Mendes, is actively working to get his client out of Barcelona.

Sport have reported that Mendes has told Barcelona that he plans to bring an offer of €70 million (£61 million) for the youngster from a club in the Premier League.

Former La Liga and UEFA Champions League winners Barcelona will reportedly sell Fati at that price.

It will be interesting to see which club from the Premier League would pay that money.

Arsenal, Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham all are massive clubs, and all could be in the market for a talented and forward young player such as Fati.

The Barcelona no. 10 has made 11 starts and 19 substitute appearances in La Liga this season.

Fati has scored four goals and given three assists in those games.
