Brighton loanee Ansu Fati looks set to move on from Barcelona this summer – and his father has named his preferred destination.
Fati, 21, has had a tough time while on loan at Brighton and will return to the Nou Camp at the end of the Premier League campaign.
The Spain international has made just three starts in the top flight for the Seagulls following his high-profile arrival last September.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said earlier this week that Barcelona are now planning to sell Fati and his old club Sevilla appears to be a viable option.
The attacker spent two years at Sevilla as youth player between 2010-12, before moving on to Barca.
“Sevilla FC are a very big club,” said Fati’s father Bori, when speaking with ABC Sevilla. “I hope it can be this summer. Bori also added that his son “would be crazy” and “very excited” to return to Sevilla, this summer.
Sevilla reportedly tried to sign Fati last year but the young striker opted for Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton instead. De Zerbi has previously questioned Fati’s motivation while at Brighton but then hinted he would open to the possibility of another loan next season. That is however now looking increasing unlikely, with a loan or permanent move to a La Liga or a Portuguese top flight outfit looking more likely.
