Brighton & Hove Albion bid farewell on Thursday to Ansu Fati, who at 21 will return to Barcelona after an irregular loan spell at the English club.
Brighton published on their social networks the message “Thank you for the memories, Ansu”, accompanied by photographs and videos of the player, who arrived in the last winter market to strengthen the attack of Roberto De Zerbi, his great supporter but also won’t be on the ‘Seagulls’ bench next season.
However, physical problems have prevented Ansu Fati from performing at his level this half-year, which has resulted in 27 games in all competitions and a record four goals. In fact, he was sidelined for more than three months with a hamstring muscle injury in his right leg that he suffered on November 25 against Nottingham before reappearing on February 4.
The Spanish forward has played just over 600 minutes this season and has not convinced the club from the south of England to try to make a potential signing for next season.
Fati, who has a valid contract with Barcelona until 2027, is back under the orders of Hansi Flicknew Blaugrana coach to be replaced Xavi Hernandez.
Brighton started the season very well and stayed on top until midway through the second half, when a long series of injuries affected their performance and relegated them to 11th place at the end of the Premier League.
