Recently, the footballer extended the contract with FC Barcelona until 2028. On this occasion, he gave an interview to the Catalan “Sport”. In him, he decided on a bold confession and explicitly stated that he wanted to end his career in FC Barcelona. – I am not saying that I have been a fan of Barcelona since childhood, because I am a Brazilian, but since I thought about becoming a footballer, I wanted to play for Barcelona. The fact that I can be here and now extend the contract makes me very happy. I hope that I can end my career here – he said.
The Brazilian also revealed that before the season he thought about the departure and the person who convinced him to change his decision was Hansi Flick. – The trainer called me and said he was counting on me.
