Barcelona transfer list Man Utd target Ansu Fati
Barcelona are ready to cash in on Ansu Fati, with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur among the Premier League clubs who are now on high alert.
Ansu was seen as a crown jewel of La Masia not so long ago, but things have come undone for the 20-year-old at Camp Nou in recent seasons.
The winger could take part in his 100th Barca game at Getafe on Sunday - an impressive figure for one so young - but he has nonetheless fallen behind Ousmane Dembele, Raphinha and Ferran Torres in the pecking order of wingers at Camp Nou this season.

Fati's father and agent Bori recently railed against Ansu's experience under Xavi - "what bothers me is how they're treating Ansu for minutes. One minute, two minutes, three minutes, that's what bothers me," he said - although the player has only recently overcome a serious hamstring injury.

But Barca are desperate for capital, even if the player himself has sought to build bridges, having been told by La Liga to reduce their debt by €200 million ahead of next season, and Ansu is one such way to raise it.
Mendes offers Ansu to Utd and others
"The board is going to put him on the market it needs money and his agent, the almighty Jorge Mendes, is already offering him to Premier League clubs," report Sport.

"Ansu is one of the players who will be scrutinised in this final stretch of the league season, alongside Ferran Torres, Raphinha, [Franck] Kessie, Eric Garcia and Jordi Alba."
Ansu is valued at €26.7m by FootballTransfers' in-house algorithm, and would also take salary of €14m a year before tax with him should he leave Camp Nou next summer.
United could comfortably afford such a fee, and are now likely to bite with Jadon Sancho and Antony struggling to convince - to varying degrees - at Old Trafford this season.
