Barcelona striker Ansu Fati has been reportedly offered to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). That comes shortly after another Barca forward Ousmane Dembele joined the Parisians this summer.

The Arsenal and Manchester United target has looked unsettled at the Camp Nou for a while. Superagent Jorge Mendes has now offered his high-profile client to the Parisians and Atletico Madrid, as per The Sun (via Sports Zone).

Last season, Fati made 51 appearances across competitions for Xavi Hernandez's side, bagging 10 goals and four assists, but only 14 of them came as a starter. Xavi is said to not stand in the way if Fati desires to leave Camp Nou.

Meanwhile, PSG signed Dembele this summer from Barca for €50 million, as per The Guardian. However, as per The Sun, the Parisians have their eye on Bradley Barcola of Lyon, which means United and Arsenal will fancy their chances of snapping up Fati.

The Spaniard was touted as a generational talent when he first emerged on the scene three years ago. At 17 years, 40 days, Fati is the youngest player to score in the UEFA Champions League. However, a series of injuries, loss of form and reduction in game time means he hasn't lived up to his full potential at Camp Nou yet.
