The inclusion of Ansu Fati in Luis Enrique’s final squad for the Spanish World Cup team was by far the biggest shock.
Before finally including Fati in his final squad, the head coach of Spain had been criticizing Fati’s lack of advancement due to injury for months. Many people were surprised, especially those who believed the young player had not played enough to get a call-up and had endured too many injuries.
However, Fati is ready to seize the chance and establish himself during the World Cup.
The Barcelona attacker stated as much during a recent press conference and thanked Enrique for the choice. “Playing in the World Cup doesn’t put any more strain to me; I’m prepared. He said, “I want to thank Luis Enrique,” through Barça Universal.
Fati has had a sluggish start to the season despite being one of the most promising players to emerge from Spanish football in recent years. He has only had three league starts, which places him below Raphinha and Ousmane Dembele in the lineup.
However, the injury issues Fati has dealt with over the previous 1.5 years are mostly to blame for his difficulties. However, given that the player currently appears to be fully fit, his inclusion to the Spain team may be justified.
Not to mention, Fati has previously demonstrated his abilities at the top level. He has four caps for the Spanish national team and 78 competitive games played for Barça. For La Roja, his contributions in the final third could be crucial as they attempt to win the World Cup next month.
