Ansu Fati's rage outburst as Barça played LaLiga against Celta

After warming up for several minutes on the sidelines, the Barcelona forward was not chosen by Hansi Flick to enter the field, even though the match against Celta was at a crucial moment and Flick used all five available substitutions. This situation provoked a reaction of evident anger from Ansu Fati, which was captured live by television cameras.

Ansu Fati's anger after not getting minutes in Barcelona vs Celta

Upon returning to the bench, Ansu Fati unleashed his frustration by kicking several things, first a team portable cooler and then the bench itself, in addition to throwing his warm-up bib on the ground.

The images showed clear gestures of disappointment and rage, reflecting the difficult personal moment the player is going through, who has gone from being one of the club's great promises to having a testimonial role in the squad.

Hansi Flick 'recommended' Ansu Fati to look for a team

The Barça coach did not comment on what happened nor did he make public statements about Ansu Fati's anger. Flick has already made it clear that Ansu Fati is not in his sports plans and that the Barcelona club is looking for his departure, although the player decided to stay in the team knowing that he would not have minutes.

So far this season, Fati has barely played 191 minutes spread over nine games, with only one start and no goals or assists. In 2025, his participation has been even more limited, with just two appearances: 28 minutes in the Copa del Rey against Barbastro and five minutes in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund.

Resignation and feeling of final point

Among the fans, there is a feeling of resignation and that Ansu Fati's cycle at Barcelona is coming to an end. It is perceived that both the player's environment and the fans have assumed that his future will probably be away from the Camp Nou.

Some interpret Fati's gestures —such as the sigh and the downcast look after training, or the kick to the bench— as signs that the relationship between the player and the club is broken and that his departure is a matter of time. Some regret that such a promising talent, who came to wear the '10' shirt, has not been able to consolidate due to injuries and lack of continuity.

Injuries and competition 'condemn' Ansu Fati

Ansu Fati has not played in LaLiga since November 10, 2024 and his situation in the squad has been aggravated by injuries and internal competition, which has drastically reduced his prominence compared to previous seasons. Fati's reaction occurred while Barcelona was looking for a comeback against Celta, which was finally achieved in the final minutes of the match.

The frustration of Ansu Fati after not playing a single minute against Celta has become one of the most talked-about images of the match. His reaction, based on kicks and gestures of rage on the bench, shows the difficult moment he is going through at the club and his desire to have a greater role in the team.
