The reported transfer fee is €11 million, but Barcelona will retain a buy-back option as well as a percentage of any future sale of Fati.
The deal is expected to be finalized this week, with the official announcement coming soon.
Ansu Fati initially joined Monaco on a season-long loan from Barcelona in the summer of 2025. He made 30 appearances for "Les Monégasques" this season, scoring 12 goals—performances that convinced the club's management to trigger the buyout clause.
According to Transfermarkt, Ansu Fati's market value is estimated at €15 million.
