Ansu Fati

Ansu Fati signed his first professional contract with Barcelona on July 24, 2019, making his first-team and La Liga debut on August 25, 2019, at 16 years and 298 days old, becoming the club’s second-youngest debutant. He quickly followed this by scoring his first professional goal on August 31, 2019, establishing himself as Barcelona’s youngest-ever goalscorer and the third-youngest in La Liga history. His record-breaking streak continued on September 14, 2019, when he became the youngest player in La Liga to both score and assist in a single match. On December 10, 2019, Fati made history again as the youngest goalscorer in UEFA Champions League history at 17 years and 40 days, also becoming the youngest Barcelona player to feature in the competition.

In his continued career evolution, Fati joined Premier League club Brighton & Hove Albion on loan in September 2023, where he scored his first Europa League goal. His international career has been equally impactful; he earned his first senior cap for Spain in September 2020 and rapidly became the national team’s youngest-ever goalscorer. Fati was a key member of Spain’s 2022 FIFA World Cup squad and contributed to their victory in the UEFA Nations League in 2023. Currently, Fati is on loan with Ligue 1 club Monaco, having joined in July 2025.

He made an immediate impact, scoring on his debut in a UEFA Champions League match. Throughout his career, Fati has accumulated significant team accolades, including two La Liga Champion titles (2022-23, 2024-25), two Copa del Rey Winner titles (2020-21, 2024-25), and a Spanish Super Cup Winner title (2023). His early impact was recognized with a place in the UEFA La Liga Revelation Team of the Year for the 2019–20 season, solidifying his status as a premier talent in European football.
