- Ansu Fati's staggering display against Villarreal has provoked more controversy regarding his contract with Barcelona, CatRadio say.
- The club are certain the contract will be automatically extended until 2024 as soon as Ansu turns 18 on October 31.
- Underage players are unable to sign long-term deals that's why the contract is currently expiring in 2022.
- However, Fati's new agent Jorge Mendes insists there is no such an option and the deal won't be unilaterally renewed.
- Ansu signed a new deal with Barca in early December with Leo Messi's brother Rodrigo acting as his representative.
- Last week, the promising attacker got officially promoted to the first team which saw his release clause rising from €170m to €400m.
- Ansu celebrated the news in style by scoring a match-winning brace against Villarreal on Sunday night.
