Ansu Fati, a winger for Brighton & Hove Albion, thought this month’s Spain call-up would be a wonderful opportunity to reestablish himself with the national squad.
After giving the 20-year-old some fresh air after joining the Seagulls, manager Luis de la Fuente expressed strong support for him. The player had been left out of their last squad.
However, things didn’t go as planned. After sitting out against Scotland and only playing for 45 minutes against Norway, AS is now criticizing Fati.
In a piece published by the outlet, it is stated that the Brighton player’missed an opportunity’ by performing poorly, as only his upcoming matches against the Seagulls will determine whether he will receive another opportunity to play for the national team.
“Dull, unpredictable, lacking in zeal, and far below the level that previously enthralled the world, Ansu squandered an opportunity as crucial as it was imperative to redeem himself. His numbers make it clear. No shots were fired, neither on goal nor off, no dribbles were completed, only one of six duels was won, no successful crosses were made, and there were up to seven turnovers. Fati, who joined Brighton on loan from Barcelona, has scored once in seven games and is still competing for a spot in the team.
