Ansu Fati is back to form and impressing again. The forward scored a beautiful goal in Monaco’s surprising victory over league leaders Lens, earning unanimous praise from French media for his efficiency.
Fati played just 21 minutes in the highly tense match, touched the ball only four times during his time on the pitch, and one of those touches resulted in the decisive goal. He remains one of the most effective forwards in Ligue 1 with 8 goals in 571 minutes played.
His loan spell at Monaco started well but was disrupted by a coaching change and physical issues. Now physically fit, he has become an important player for Monaco. The loan ends on June 30, and Monaco can buy him permanently for 12 million euros.
It is clear he will not have a spot at Barcelona next season, as the club intends to terminate his contract valid until 2028. Should Monaco decline the purchase option, other clubs are closely watching the promising player.
