If Fati does well enough that Barca are desperate to have him back, then most likely he’s scored 10-15 goals for us and if that happens most likely we’ll finish in the top 5 and be playing CL next season, so he might want to stay regardless.

The club needs to be in the business of trading in players in a much more robust fashion than it has been regardless.
We need this summer to be the last time we have such an army of deadwood to shift.
He will disappear there like Mandueke has. Chelsea just collecting players
12m loan for one year no buy option and covering his full 230 k wages
this could either be smart or backfire

He is 1 year younger than Fati and scored more league goals than Fati ever did, albeit in a weaker league, blocking his development for a loan player who isn't even a striker really doesn't make sense for me.
Sure he needs time to adjust to life in England, but what are we gonna do after January, when he'll want to play, block him for a loanee?
He didn't miss any time with injury last year. Underlying stats were also pretty fucking good last year too.
Look, the knee injury is part of the decision. That's why a loan makes sense.
Not just my view that Fati is an elite talent. He is.
Put it this way, Bentancur is back in September but had a knee injury. If he plays a bit part role until the end of the season but hasn't played 90min week in week out.
Would you prefer to sell him or loan him next summer?
Would you expect him to be a good player for any club on loan next season?
Veliz is probably going on loan in January after he has done English lessons and got settled into the club.
Fati and Veliz aren't really players you can compare in terms of senior football.
Fati’s been playing in La Liga and CL for four years, this kid’s had one season in Argentina. He needs games. I really hope we sort him a loan in Europe or the Championship.
We can’t mess him up like we did Foyth who’d barely played in Argenina when we bought him. Then we sat him for years and complained when he looked raw when he got the odd game here and there.
hope johnson comes in too hes been subbed on tonight so its a mystery
Yup, he's a chav smurf now. Going to a RW conor gallagher
Not close to happening if he's playing and the deadline is 48 hours away.
3 reasons why Ansu Fati is vital for Barcelona's success in 2023
3 reasons why Ansu Fati is vital for Barcelona's success in 2023: Barcelona's young prodigy, Ansu Fati, experienced a challenging season marked by injuries and a dip in form in 2022.

Fati experienced a challenging season marked by injuries and a dip in form in 2022. Despite being fit in the latter half of the campaign, playing time was scarce underBarcelona coach. Consequently, rumors circulated that the La Masia graduate might be leaving this summer. However, the 20-year-old has firmly dismissed these speculations, expressing his commitment to succeeding with the Blaugrana. Fati closed the previous season on a high note, netting several goals in the final few fixtures - and finished with ten goals and four assists to his name in the last season,
Plays anywhere across front line - often off left wing, can play right wing as well
Bentancur hasn’t had a chunk of his knee ripped out
I was thinking of the Reguilon deal too.
But you have to understand why that's WAY worse than a straight loan.
We get all the downside if he's bad or his fitness craps out in a Reguilon-style deal, while STILL losing the player to the buyback if he's a massive success.
Risk not worth the reward, a bad financial gamble.
Mixed bag this summer
Maddison: club identified a critical but weak area of the team, signed him good and early, no messing about and got him for what looks like a steal.
Vicario: another weak area of the team identified and addressed early. Still not convinced that Raya wasn't the better option, time will tell.
Micky VDV. Another weak area of the team. Every man and his dog knew we needed 2 centre backs yet we've only signed one. Signed a mere 3 days before the 1st game of the season. Absolutely disgraceful that the coach and team were put in that position. Easy to overlook this now due to our recent results and how well VDV has taken to things but a completely unnecessary and avoidable risk.
2nd centre back. Still pending with 48 hours to go.
Replacement striker for kane. MIA. Kane left 2 weeks ago and the club knew it was a very definite possibility since June and still had nothing lined up or nothing done in the last 2 weeks.
Players Sold
Lloris, no
