Barcelona’s Wonderkid, Ansu Fati Suffers Knee Injury As Barca Beat Betis 5:2

Barcelona wonderkid Ansu Fati could be set be sidelined for a long period, after he suffered a serious knee injury during Barcelona’s 5-2 thrashing Real Betis on Saturday evening at the Nou Camp.

Barcelona confirmed that Fati did not come on for the second half after picking up an injury to his left knee, and could be out for a while.

The 18-year-old played the opening 45 minutes for La Blaugrana but was substituted at half-time by Ronald Koeman, who introduced Lionel Messi in his place.

Messi went on to turn the game in favour of his side netting a brace and helping his side run out hefty winners.

Fati’s injury is described as an ‘internal meniscus injury’ to his left knee, a blow that could leave the winger out of action for several months.
