Barcelona ahead Ansu Fati will be given the opportunity to convince the new manager Hansi Flick that he can be useful in the preseason, but he is certainly on the outside looking, and has already received approaches, about a move this season.
Fati, 21, is expected to go on loan or even permanently this summer, and new Fenerbahce manager Jose Mourinho has identified him as a target. AS Diary say that the Turkish giants also made an offer to Fati, but the young forward rejected it.
Meanwhile Sport say that Seville, the place of his first home, continues to push for a stretch. They are positioned as the most likely destination for a loan move, as Ansu is not considering going to Saudi Arabia, despite interest from the Middle East. Los Nervionenses are doing what they can to persuade Fati to join former manager Garcia Pimienta, and their other moves will only help their cause. Sevilla have requested Ilaix Moriba on loan from RB Leipzig, and are now also chasing another former teammate of Fati's in Getafe center Carles Alena.

For their part, Barcelona is still not convinced by Sevilla's approach – the Andalusian side will not pay half of his salary, and while they want him to have minutes, the Blaugrana could consider just holding on to him.
As has been the case for the last few years, Barcelona's salary cap situation can be decisive, and it is not a bad strategy for Sevilla to wait until the last stages of the transfer window when Barcelona may be desperate for what relief they can get. that area. The first weeks of pre-season could also be decisive, depending on the kind of feeling you get from Flick.
