'At least two' - Man United fans make worrying Ansu Fati prediction ahead of Premier League move

Manchester United fans are adamant Ansu Fati will score against them this season as he edges closer to a move to Brighton, with his debut for the south coast club potentially coming against the Reds.

The Seagulls are set to complete a miraculous swoop for the Barcelona winger. A deal has reportedly been agreed for the Spaniard to join on a season-long loan deal.

Fati has struggled with injuries in recent seasons after bursting onto the scene in Spain. He was given Lionel Messi's number 10 shirt but has failed to build on a promising start.

A move to England and regular football should help reignite his career. Frustratingly for United fans, he could make his Premier League debut against United after the international break.

United were fleetingly linked as a potential destination for Fati during the summer but those reports had little substance. Arsenal were also touted as a possible destination.

Although United fans aren't too bothered about missing out on Fati, they're predicting that he will come back to haunt them this season having previously been linked with a move to Old Trafford. Similarly, the speed and quality of Brighton's recruitment has irked fans, as they continue to stall with their final bits of business before the 11pm deadline on Friday.
