I would tell you that all are close to closing their agreement, although due to a matter of ‘timings’ they decided that I was the first to be able to register the new signings, “he explained.
It was forceful by making the predisposition clear of the group: “Sometimes the information does not flow as we would like, or there are misunderstandings, and I want to make this very clear. My teammates are going to make the same effort as me and I would like people to help at the Camp Nou, be with him team, which is what we need, “he said, in a veiled allusion to some whistles, especially in the Gamper. “It is something that touched, to which we were open after a few years of not very good management, “he concluded, referring to the Bartomeu board.

He was hopeful regarding recovery from the club: “From now on, aligned with the club, I’m sure he will come out of this.
Although it is a very small step, it is the beginning of an era in which we will not have Leo with us, but it will certainly be very positive. “
And he sees it clearly due to the value of the generation of young people in the team: “At Barça now comes a generation that is the host, with the Gavi, Nico, Demir, Riqui, Pedri, who is not from the quarry but is very young , Ansu, Araujo, Eric … we have a high level, a lot of young people with a high level. At Barça it is the essence it must always be preserved. La Masia is everything and we cannot put it aside to be able to compete with these teams, clubs or directly countries, we have to invest a lot in La Masia, which is our thing “.

His time at Zaragoza

It was a very, very good experience, that’s when I realized that I could play in the First Division. I had a very, very good year, we had a great team. I have eternal gratitude for the city, la Romareda, the club … An unforgettable experience.
I played pivot that later at Barça never more. Sometimes I was a double pivot with Celades and I was the offensive pivot … and I had a great arrival. “He recalled” a Cup tie that we beat Barça 0-1 with my goal but then they came back. I was sad, but at least Barça passed … although then the semifinal against Getafe came and they got four in the second leg, in that tie for Leo’s famous goal “.
Real Zaragoza is in 2nd for a theme management of the club, that of Agapito. It will return to First. It is where the club belongs by hobby, history and everything. Ander Herrera is one of those behind (the purchase). Sorry, Ander, in case I couldn’t say it. “
