Does it cost more than Lionel Messi? The price that FC Barcelona puts on its young star to shield him

After the departures of Ivan Rakitic, Arturo Vidal and Luis Suárez, the offensive options for Koeman decreased and the team had no other chance that relying on the young stars. Ensue Fati, Pedri, Trincao and Ousmane Dembele become really important for the fans.

The main star right now is the new Lionel Messi, Ansu Fati. When he played his first three matches, Manchester United made a huge offer for him and FC Barcelona rejected it. The bid was for $130 million dollars, $20 million less than the clause of Fati’s contract.

The player is now valued almost $200 millions. That’s more than Lionel Messi right now and more than Messi has ever costed. The problem here is the way the young stars are being overvalued. There are a few clubs that can pay such amounts of money and they can easily monopolize the market.

The player turned 18 today and he has already 13 goals in 40 appearances. He seems to be the next Lionel Messi of FC Barcelona and could be the key player of the team if they want to fight the Champions League and the League. Will the pressure be high for him or could he make it to the Champions League?
