Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi admits he’s excited working with Ansu Fati.
Fati has arrived on-loan from Barcelna.
“He brings quality, speed, being unpredictable”, said De Zerbi.
“He can play winger because one-to-one he is top. He can play number ten because between the lines he knows what he has to do. He can play striker too.
“The first time I saw Ansu Fati he played El Clasico against Real Madrid as a striker. He scored in that game. He can play with Welbeck, with Ferguson, with Joao Pedro, with Lallana. But in the same way he can play winger.
“We will see during the season. It is important because with him we can upgrade. But first of all I want him to enjoy. I don’t want to put too much responsibility on him. He has to show his quality, we want to win. But first he has to think to enjoy playing.
“We can expect him and Baleba to be in the squad after the international break.”
