Ansu Fati is a young brilliant star. He debuted as a football player for FC Barcelona’s First Division in August 2019 and since then it all has been records, media, and expectations as a young mind navigating through that. Born in Guinea-Bisáu, Ansu moved to Sevilla when he was six and started playing football at Sevilla Fútbol Club, which soon led to his transfer to FCB where he played for years before rising to the front row. When asked about it, Ansu keeps a chill attitude towards success and recognition, a quality he attributes to his family and the way they deal with this dazzling experience. And it is quite something to achieve, since to this day at 20 years old, Ansu is the youngest player to ever score a goal for FCB in the First Division, the youngest to score a goal while playing at the Champions League and the youngest to be picked for the Spain National Team, to which Ansu says he is proud of until another kid with dreams comes up. Talking family, equality, a little bit of fashion, and how to stay grounded, he always comes back to the same place: to keep evolving, as a professional, but mainly as a good person.
