AS Monaco is close to complete the deal with Barcelona for Ansu Fati on loan for the next whole season. As only 3-4 days are pending in summer transfer window to be opened and Ansu is already in search of a new club, AS Monaco has come up as a surprise. The loan deal will include buy option as Barcelona didn’t want the player anymore.

With just a few days left before the summer transfer window officially opens, AS Monaco have emerged as surprise contenders to secure the services of Barcelona winger Ansu Fati. According to multiple reports, the Ligue 1 side is on the verge of completing a loan deal for the Spanish international, which will include a buy option.

Once hailed as Barcelona’s next big star, Fati has struggled to live up to expectations in recent seasons, facing multiple injury setbacks and limited opportunities under Xavi. The 21-year-old spent the previous campaign on loan at Brighton in the Premier League but failed to make a lasting impact.

Now, with Barcelona reportedly no longer counting on him as part of their long-term plans, Monaco have taken a bold step to bring Fati to Ligue 1. The French club’s project and the promise of regular playing time could offer the youngster a much-needed fresh start.

While personal terms and final details are still being ironed out, the move is expected to be finalized shortly after the transfer window opens.
