A Saudi Arabian club are set to make an irresistible offer for Barcelona winger Ansu Fati according to reports from Spain this afternoon.
According to a tweet by Spanish journalist Javi Miguel Club, A Saudi side are preparing to see if they can tempt Barcelona, who are struggling with cash to sign players this summer, with a huge offer for the Spanish winger.
The 20-year-old Spaniard has struggled with injuries since his big break a few seasons back. The forward has featured in 109 games since making his debut back in 2019 but has had a plethora of injury issues to deal with since his big break at Camp Nou.
After he suffered a meniscal laceration which ruled the exciting forward out for the best part of a year and he missed a season, and more importantly, a crucial season of development.
Since then, the winger has suffered two injuries back to back, with both being hamstring injuries. Whether this is because of the serious injury he suffered the season before seems like a possibility.
Fati could be a transformative signing
One thing is clear, the talent and the capabilities of the winger are freakishly high. The winger who made his debut at just 16, has pace, guile, and creativity and is still, despite the injury issues, remains a superb talent with endless potential if he can stay fit.
The club that are seemingly lacking compared to the others in the Saudi Pro League is Al-Hilal. The Saudi side, who have tried and failed to sign Kylian Mbappe and Victor Osimhen, may well believe that Fati could revitalise his career in the Middle East.
The tweet from the Spanish journalist seems to question whether Fati’s father, his agent, would be interested in making the move to the Middle East. Nevertheless, a move to Saudi Arabia would be another big coup for the league itself.
