Borussia Dortmund have set their sights on Barcelona starlet Ansu Fati as a replacement for Jadon Sancho, according to Sport.
The Spanish newspaper claim that the Bundesliga giants have been scoring the market for a talented youngster to fill the boots of Sancho, who is a £100million target for Manchester United and Chelsea this summer.
And after landing wonderkids including Ousmane Dembele and Erling Haaland in recent years, 17-year-old Fati has emerged as their next target.
It is now clear how much Barca would expect for Fati, although Sport claim that the club would only consider a deal if a buy-back clause is included.
The winger, who came through the club’s famous La Masia academy, has enjoyed a breakthrough season after making his debut last August.
Fati became the club’s second-youngest player when he came off the bench in a LaLiga clash with Real Betis, and scored his first professional goal a few days later.
He has made 24 appearances for the first team in all competitions this term, netting five goals and providing one assist.
