Barcelona manager Xavi has confessed Ansu Fati has fallen victim to the high level of competition for places at Camp Nou.
The 20-year-old has managed 44 appearances in all competitions this season but just 13 of those outings have come as a starter, with many fans growing frustrated at the underwhelming form he has shown since his return from injury.
Last month, Fati's father even publicly questioned his son's lack of minutes this season, but Xavi has now insisted he has his reasons.
