Barcelona forward Ansu Fati is reluctant to move to Wolves

Ansu Fati is key in the operation to bring Rúben Neves (26) to FC Barcelona. The home-grown player was the first player that Jorge Mendes, representative of both players, put on the table to open negotiations between Barça and Wolves.

The exchange proposed by the Portuguese agent, however, will only be carried out in the event that all parties approve it, something that seems complicated.

The reality is that Ansu Fati's firm will is to continue at Barça and not give up his dream of succeeding at the club of his life. In the event that the pressure from the Catalan club 'forces' him to leave, in addition, the forward is far from convinced by Wolves.

It is not a destination that particularly motivates him in the aim of relaunching his career. The team managed by Julen Lopetegui has secured Premier League survival in a difficult year, but next season they will not play in European competition.

If Ansu does not authorise the transfer, Mendes will have to look at other exchanges.

Players such as Sergiño Dest, Nico Gonzalez or Abde could enter the scene, as Wolves will ask for around 50 million euros for Rúben Neves and Barça cannot afford such a high outlay, even if they consider the operation to be strategic.

The Portuguese midfielder, it should be remembered, also raises doubts among the sporting management.
