Chelsea could have another chance to sign Barcelona winger Ansu Fati next summer.

Ansu Fati is currently on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion but was linked with a move to Chelsea in the last transfer window.

While the 20-year-old may be at the Amex Stadium now, a report from Sport claims that Barcelona want to sell him, giving another club like Chelsea the chance to come in for his signature.

According to 90min, the Blues were interested in Fati during the summer, but he ended up joining their Premier League rivals Brighton.

Since arriving to the Premier League, he has scored one goal, which came in the Seagulls’ humiliating 6-1 defeat to Aston Villa last Saturday.

Barcelona trying to get rid of Ansu Fati

It is a bit of a surprise to hear that Barcelona are willing to let Fati go for good.

Yes, he has had some struggles of late, which have been partly down to injuries, but the Spain international is still just 20 years of age.

Fati has plenty of time to get back on track again. He is a quality attacker, with Ivan Rakitic hailing him as an “incredible talent”.

The wide man does not seem to be incredible enough for Barcelona to keep hold of him, though. Their loss could be Chelsea, Brighton or another side’s gain next summer, however.

Fati could easily end up becoming a player who Barcelona sold too soon if he reaches his full potential, which is still possible given how young he still is.
