The 20-year-old Spain international made 36 LaLiga appearances last season for Barcelona as they went on to win the title.

“This is a great deal for all of us,” Brighton head coach Roberto De Zerbi said on the Premier League club’s website. “I am sure Ansu will help us to reach a new target and we can help him get back at the level he deserves to be.”

Fati came through the Barcelona academy, making his senior debut in August 2019 and later became the club’s youngest goal scorer in both LA Liga and the Champions League.

His signing is quite a coup for the Seagulls as they prepare to face Newcastle United in the Premier League tomorrow. De Zerbi however said his star arrival is not yet up to speed, while Danny Welbeck is out with a small injury.

“I think no [Fati won’t be involved], he hasn’t worked in the last four or five days. can’t play, it’s a muscular injury, but the situation isn’t so bad. We are in good condition.”
