As Barcelona grapple with the urgent need to trim their first-team squad and alleviate a hefty wage bill, significant decisions are being made in the closing days of the summer transfer window.
With just 20 days remaining, the club are in a race against time to finalize exits for several high-earning players who do not fit into new manager Hansi Flick’s plans.
One of the most notable names on the departure list is Ansu Fati. Despite his promising pre-season under Flick, where he demonstrated his dedication and skill, Fati’s progress was halted by an injury just before the US trip.
His ongoing physical struggles have limited his ability to secure a place in Barcelona’s competitive forward line, which now features rising stars like Pau Victor and newly signed Dani Olmo, along with the potential arrival of Nico Williams.

The club are keen on securing a destination where Fati can regain his physical form and confidence away from Montjuïc and Camp Nou, reports Diario SPORT.
At just 21 years old, Fati’s career is far from over, but he needs regular playing time and a fresh environment to reignite his potential.
Barcelona’s need to offload high-salary players like Fati is not just about squad size but also about financial prudence.
His contract, renewed at a premium rate, presents a challenge in finding a club willing to absorb a significant portion of his wages.
As the transfer window draws to a close, Barcelona’s efforts to find a new home for Ansu Fati could go a long way in helping the club reduce their wage bill and register new signings.
