Barcelona start renewal process for Spanish wonderkid

According to reports from Sergi Sole of Mundo Deportivo, super-agent Jorge Mendes has received FC Barcelona’s renewal offer for their 18-year-old prodigal talent Ansu Fati.

Mendes is currently on vacation in Qatar, which will delay the process a little. However, he will reportedly meet with Mathieu Alemany in three weeks to close the renewal and find an agreement.

The teenage sensation wants to stay in Barcelona and is not considering any other options at the moment. That said, his agent will look to close the deal at the earliest.

Ansu Fati made his much-awaited come-back from injury in the final ten minutes against Levante at the Camp Nou. It was an emotional night for the youngster, as he scored an excellent solo goal to put an end to his year-long misery.

The 18-year-old had been forced out of action since his unfortunate injury against Real Betis last season. After three unsuccessful surgeries, Fati persevered and came back strong to make his return possible.

A goal on his return was not only a statement of character but proof to the Camp Nou about his intentions with the #10 jersey.

His inclusion into the team will be gradual, for another injury is the last thing the club and player want. However, glimpses of his magic will once again be available to soak in before he is well and truly ready to start.

Fati’s renewal is of utmost importance for Barcelona, and with the player firm on his desire to stay, an agreement is only a matter of time.
