Fati's father expressed strong dissatisfaction as the number of starts was lower than expected


Barcelona striker Ansu Fati 's number of starts is lower than expected, causing strong dissatisfaction with his father Bori. On Tuesday of this week, he put pressure on Barcelona's top management through the media to win more opportunities for Fati.


"As a father, I'm angry, yes, like any father. I'm a little bit angry because I don't see Ansu very often," he told El Partidazo de COPE categorically.


"Ansu deserved more chances"

Fati has only made 12 starts so far this season. It is believed that his tactical status in Barcelona is much lower than that of Lewandowski, Dembele, Rafinha and even Ferran Torres. Bori admits that Fati's current situation makes him very painful.


"I told Mateu Aleimani (director of football), Jordi Cruyff (director of sport) that we deserve more chances. Before Ansu got injured, he was able to compete with Messi, Suarez, Dembele, Griezmann players playing together."


"Mateu told me that he loves Ansu. It bothers me that they only give Ansu a minute, two minutes or three minutes. The strikers who are there are very good, but we are talking about Ansu Fati. , a Spain international, a lad from La Masia, he is not just an ordinary boy. Ansu deserves more, he is Barcelona's number 10."


"Ansu has always stood up for Barcelona. When Barcelona was at a low point, everyone wanted Ansu to play and even let him come back early. But now that Ansu is back, what happens? We have to forget about him ?"


Bori also compared Fati to Vinicius's experience at Real Madrid: "Remember the criticism everyone made of Vinicius two years ago? And now? We ask for stable playing opportunities and support, and I ask for it." Take care of him and ask for nothing else."


"You never know where you're going to be taken"

If the number of starts is still not as expected, Boli does not rule out finding another way for his son. He said ambiguously, "I have considered returning to join Sevilla for a while. Now I will not consider the offer from Real Madrid, because Ansu will not accept it. I cannot send Ansu to a club he does not want to go to."


"But I will never speak ill of Real Madrid because he and Barcelona are two great clubs. You never know what the world will bring you...you never know where you will be taken."


"For me, I want to see Ansu succeed. I would take him away from Barcelona. However, Ansu has no intention of going to another club. Barcelona told me that they bet a lot on Ansu and they know exactly meet me."


"Ansu, on the other hand, said to Jorge Mendes (agent): 'I'm from Barça, I'm not leaving Barça.' As a father I don't think so, but he said: 'Dad, I don't agree. , I want to be in Barcelona.'”
