Barcelona forward Ansu Fati is expected to join French club Monaco on loan with an option to buy, sources close to the deal said on Friday.
The 22-year-old Spanish international passed his medical on Friday as Monaco and Barcelona agreed to a season-long loan deal with an €11-million fee to make the move permanent.
According to the same source, the contract will not be made official until 1 July.
Fati burst onto the scene at Barcelona aged 17, but has since failed to live up to initial high expectations.
He made 11 appearances in all competitions for the LaLiga champions last term, without finding the net.
Fati spent the 2023/24 season on loan at Premier League club Brighton, where he scored four goals in 27 outings.
With his expected arrival, Fati should become Monaco's third signing of the summer.
