Tottenham Target Barcelona Star Ansu Fati in January Transfer Gamble to Revive Season

According to a Spanish publication, Tottenham is considering a loan deal for the Barcelona forward, Ansu Fati in the current transfer window following a rough season in the English top-tier competition.

After constant reports of injuries to the personnel and deteriorating performance, the Spurs are now in the 15th position, and it is high time they strengthen their squad for manager Ange Postecoglou.

Spanish sports publication SPORT also reports Spurs are likely to rival London club West Ham in the race for Fati.

The 22-year-old winger has never been a first-team regular under Hansi Flick, and the German has not been shy to express his doubts about Fati’s future at Camp Nou.

With the player missing many significant encounters, including Supercopa and the Copa del Rey and now a starter for club football’s biggest event, the six-month loan is said to be okay with him because his current deal runs until 2027.

Tottenham has had a very hard time this season because of way too many injuries that have hampered their preparations. Some of the key defenders, like Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, and Destiny Udogie, have been unavailable.

Ansu Fati Has Been Inconsistent Recently

Likewise, Dominic Solanke has been overweight due to the injuries of Richarlison, Wilson Odobert and Timo Werner. Having a thin forward line only compounded Postecoglou ‘s headaches and that is why Fati could be so important for the team.

One of the young youths who have been known to be very useful in Barcelona is Ansu Fati but he has had trials with injuries that slowed him down.

Despite that he was impressive at times during his loan stint at Brighton during the previous season, he lacked consistency. But his speed, twin position and technicality make him a target for Spurs, especially during periods of emergencies.

The evaluation of signing Fati is a strategic move for Tottenham especially given that he often faces injuries. However, offering presence in the limited transfer window might just be a valuable addition to attacking cover to challenge for better positions.

Signing Fati before West Ham would be a mouthwatering acquisition for Spurs as they chase a better season in the current transfer window.
