Hansi Flick has no confidence in Ansu Fati and is showing it match after match. It is rare for him to be drafted despite being in good physical condition, and he knows that the doors of FC Barcelona are wide open for him. Deco tried to move him in the previous winter market, but he rejected all the proposals he had on the table.
This could change now as the market remains active in some countries despite it has closed in some. This is the case in Türkiye, where it will not conclude until next Tuesday, the 11th, at midnight. Besiktas wants him there and is willing to travel to Barcelona to try to convince Ansu Fati.
Deco has discussed this matter with Hansi Flick, and the verdict is common: he has Barça's doors open. They've been clear with Ansu Fati about that if he wants to leave, he can do so as it is his decision, and they will not prevent it. However, for now, the youth player remains firm in his idea of staying and doesn't seem to want to head to Besiktas.
Besiktas intends to convince him to be on loan for the rest of the season and assuming a good amount of his salary. They propose him to feel important in Istanbul, offering him a place to be a starter and have the minutes he doesn't have at Barça. He has a contract until 2027, and finding him a destination seems complicated.
Besiktas Comes for Ansu Fati: OK from Hansi Flick
A delegation from Besiktas is expected to land in Barcelona in the coming hours to convince Ansu Fati to accept this move. Barça has opened the doors for him, and he knows that if he stays, he would hardly have any minutes. Hansi Flick doesn't trust him and keeps leaving him out of the call-ups.
Deco is willing to negotiate and has already discussed this matter with Jorge Mendes, the youth player's representative. In this regard, Mendes also advocates for a loan to revalue himself and leave Barça in the coming months.
A few days ago, before the market closed in Spain, Ansu Fati received a strong proposal from Saudi Arabia. Barça would have received 10+5 million euros for his sale. Deco was willing to accept it, but the young culer didn't want to leave.
