Tottenham 'are set to rival Chelsea for Ansu Fati'... with Ange Postecoglou's side 'in contact with Barcelona over a season-long loan' for the Spanish international

Tottenham have reportedly made contact with Barcelona over a loan deal for their highly-rated young winger Ansu Fati.

The 20-year-old burst onto the scene during the 2019-20 season, scoring seven goals in LaLiga from 24 appearances before a knee injury curtailed his blistering progress.

The Spanish international has struggled to replicate that form since and has fallen down the pecking order at the Nou Camp as fellow starlets Pedri and Gavi ascended to significant prominence.

As a result, Spurs are ready to make a move for the forward and have begun discussions with the Spanish champions, according to Fabrizio Romano.
