As part of the deal, Barcelona will cover a significant portion of Fati's salary. This move is expected to benefit Barcelona, as they will receive a significant profit if Fati is sold in the future. Fati will be presented to the press along with the other new signings on Thursday.
Originally from Guinea-Bissau, Fati made his professional debut with Barcelona at the age of 16. During his time with the club, he played 123 matches, scored 29 goals, and won several titles, including two Spanish league titles and two Spanish Cup trophies.
As a Spanish international, Fati has played 11 matches and scored two goals. He was part of the winning 2023 Nations League team and played in the 2022 World Cup. However, his previous season was complicated by numerous injuries, which limited him to only 11 matches without scoring any goals.
Before joining Monaco, Fati played on loan for Brighton in the Premier League during the 2023-2024 season, where he scored four goals in 27 matches.
With this new opportunity, Fati aims to restart his career and make a successful comeback. He will be playing in the Principality and will have the chance to regain his form and contribute to Monaco's success.
