La Liga rivals set sights on 21-year-old Barcelona academy graduate for the summer

Barcelona forward Ansu Fati was given a golden opportunity to revive his withering career on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion, but the spell has not gone according to plans for the youngster.

Instead of convincing the Barcelona higher-ups that he deserved a place in the squad, Fati has undergone difficulties in acquiring regular game-time under Roberto De Zerbi, with a calf injury toward the end of last year once again robbing him of regularity.

But to carry out new signings, Barcelona will have to oversee exit operations so they can return to the 1:1 rule in La Liga.
