The UEFA Nations League final took place last night in which a number of FC Barcelona players featured. All three of these Blaugrana players, Ansu Fati, Gavi, and Jordi Alba, were playing for the Spanish national side and thus ended the season having won another trophy in addition to La Liga title and the Spanish Super Cup.
As reported by Mundo Deportivo, Ansu Fati was one of the players who spoke to the media after winning the final 5-4 on penalties against Croatia. The player has regularly been in club-related news, as the club was contemplating a move for him in order to raise some much-needed funds, but the player wanted to stay and grow at FC Barcelona.
After the final, the player reiterated his commitment to the club and desire to remain in Catalonia. He expressed that he has a contract with the Catalan giants, and his intention is to continue improving and growing with the club. He also said he was happy with both his club and his national side.
The player also expressed his delight at winning the Nations League trophy with his national side, especially because he had not won this trophy previously. He went on to thank the national team coach, Luis de la Fuente, for showing confidence in him, and calling him up to cover for the injured Nico Williams.
Commenting on the match itself, the player saw the final as a highly intense affair, but his team taking care of business in the end. He conceded that while he came on the pitch during the 2nd half of the match, he has tried to give his best whenever he has been on the pitch, and that his teammates have helped him get confident in his abilities.
While Fati has ended this season on a high, the upcoming summer transfer window would be a pivot period of time for his career. As clear from his comments, he wants to continue at FC Barcelona, but he faces a lot of pressure to join another side, and his future at the club remains uncertain as of now.
