Spain boss Luis de la Fuente has confirmed Ansu Fati has a chance of being recalled to the national team after making a bright start to life on loan with Monaco.
The forward has bagged six goals in five
games for his new club, and De la Fuente admits he is very much in his thoughts right now.
“Ansu Fati was on our team list before being called up. We’re monitoring all the players who could be in the national team. He’s scored five or six goals, and we’ve assessed him,” he told reporters.
“What I can’t confirm is that if there’s someone missing, he’ll be replaced. But of course, Ansu is on the list, and that’s interesting. It’s great news for the national team.”
De la Fuente’s words will be another boost for Fati and should provide the forward with added motivation, particularly with a World Cup on the horizon.
