However, he assures that he always had in his head the idea of ​​returning to the Barça club: “I had the feeling that I would return to Barça and, as much as some did not understand it, I have returned. We have to work to rebuild a great Barça and for this we need stability and solidarity. “And he reveals that if he did not return to Barcelona before, it was because of a person: “I would not have accepted an offer from Bartomeu. I left when he was president and there was no point working with him again,” sentenced.
