As of now, there are only talks for a straight loan being discussed between the two clubs. Barcelona want Tottenham to cover Ansu Fati’s entire salary for the season to let him go on a loan deal. And as of yet, there is no agreement between the two yet.

It will be interesting to see if Barcelona include a buy option in the deal since a lot has been said about Ansu Fati’s future as of late. The youngster has struggled with major injuries, and has had few opportunities in the starting line-up. His father spoke out over his lack of playing time under Xavi.

If Spurs can sign the young Spaniard, it would be a significant addition to their squad and would help them till the void left by Harry Kane.
