Tbf didn't Ansu Fati need persuading to come on loan to us too? IIRC De Zerbi had to convince him personally.
Given how many AMs and wingers we're expecting back from injury and internationals in the coming weeks, I don't think it's too out of order for him to want to know how the manager intends to use him. If he just ends up sat on our bench as soon as Fati, Adingra, Mitoma etc. are back, that would be worse for his career than sitting on the Spurs bench for the rest of this season, because he'll be perceived as having failed to nail down a place at two clubs instead of one.
