The brutal reality of the injuries that Barcelona is having to deal with is an annoying one. Almost always, Hansi Flick’s side seems to have at least one or two key players sidelined. Yet, whenever Barcelona seems to be close to solving such issues, new ones begin to pop up.
In terms of casualties, the most recent one was a hard loss for Barça to swallow. Lamine Yamal, one of the most crucial components of this team and a superstar for the club, was the player to be injured most recently and he is now expected to be sidelined for the weeks to come.
However, with this 17-year-old prodigy out injured, Hansi Flick’s side is in desperate need for a new spark of some kind. While the Barcelona coach and his team continue to look for adequate solutions, a certain 22-year-old forward definitely does not want to wait any longer:
According to SPORT, Ansu Fati is already fully fit and training normally with the team in their full sessions. Moreover, he does not want to wait until the end of the year and instead wants to get cleared before that point to be able to feature against Atletico Madrid.
Having been injured previously, the player is already back following his recovery. Moreover, he now seems to be feeling much better from a physical standpoint.
From a fitness standpoint, the player is reportedly now fully fit and injury-free. Moreover, he seems dedicated to proving himself at Barcelona again but with the final decision now being completely in the hands of Hansi Flick, and the coach could end up being a bit more cautious.
However, it is true that Fati still needs to gradually regain match fitness. While the player seems eager to feature against Atletico Madrid in the upcoming game, Flick could end up waiting for the Christmas break to end before the player gets his chance to play in a more prominent role.
So far this season, the Barcelona forward has only featured in four La Liga outings. In total, he has accumulated only 129 minutes during this ongoing campaign and he is also yet to score. However, if there was ever a chance for him to regain his confidence and his value for the club, this is it.
