Of the wonderkids born in 2001 or later, Ansu Fati is the most likely to reach “world-class player” status, according to our analysis. <\/b>In the final third he participates effectively in the creation of attacks, but it is the astonishing precision of his finishing that really sets him apart. This is thanks to his deep understanding of the game, which allows him to take rapid and efficient decisions. There is still room for improvement in some areas (e.g. dribbling) and uncertainty regarding his predisposition to injuries, but it is clear to us that we are looking at a potential Ballon d’Or. We would expect him to receive increasing playing responsibilities at FC Barcelona in the future.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bio and playing style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Youngest UCL goalscorer ever<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Born in Bissau (Guinea-Bissau) on 31st October, 2002, Anssumane \u201cAnsu\u201d Fati Vieira moved to Seville with his family at the age of six. His father was looking for a stable job after having played for some years in Portuguese minor leagues. Following his older brother Braima, Ansu started playing football in Sevilla\u2019s youth team. At the age of ten he moved to Barcelona\u2019s La Masia, again following in the footsteps of Braima, who had made the same journey the previous year. Ansu Fati made his first team debut for Bar\u00e7a on 25th August 2019. He is the all-time youngest goalscorer in UEFA Champions League, when he got the winner against Inter Milan aged just 17 years and 40 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ansu is 178cm tall and weighs just 66kg. Though not one of the fastest players in the league in terms of top speed, he is incredibly quick over short sprints and in changes of direction. Technically, meanwhile, it is clear at first sight that there are few players at his level. Right footed, Ansu can nonetheless control, pass and shoot the ball with either foot (his xG per game, for instance, is the same at 0.12 with both feet). However, only one of his 11 La Liga goals to date was scored with his left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
