Fati was supposed to be a major player for Ronald Koeman’s Barca. He even started the season on a very positive note. However, he picked up a major injury that would see him out for the rest of the season. The club confirmed that the player will not be making it back any time soon.
Hence, the player was seen working out in a gym and Cristiano Ronaldo posted a picture of that on his own story. He wished for the player to get back soon on the pitch. The whole message of the story was for Ansu Fati to keep fighting this injury and come back stronger.

The message was seen as a very wholehearted gesture from Cristiano by the Barca fans. The Catalans and Real Madrid are known to be the biggest rivals in the history of the game. The former Manchester United winger is not exactly very popular amongst the Blaugrana crowd. However, this gesture can obviously be seen as a gesture of goodwill from the Madrid legend. After all, he is one of the greatest footballers of all time, and being that and taking time out to wish a very young talent for his injuries, can surely be seen as a very classy move.
Cristiano Ronaldo deserves nothing but respect for this particular move.
