Barcelona boss Xavi Hernandez strongly refuted any possibility of forward Ansu Fati leaving the club amid transfer links with Manchester United.
It comes after reports that the 20-year-old’s agent Jorge Mendes was attempting to mastermind a move away from the Catalan giants for their youth prodigy over a lack of game-time – he has fallen down the pecking order at the Camp Nou following Robert Lewandowski’s arrival this season.
Fati has made just nine starts for the club across all competitions this campaign while both of his appearances for Spain at the World Cup also came from the bench. This lack of regular starting opportunities has brought suggestions he is seeking to leave Barca at the end of the campaign.
