in its purest form.

Pep Guardiola

I started dating Shakira and the relationship with him changes
; now the relationship is perfect. I had a lot of pressure. I felt that in training I had to do everything perfect. If there has been a moment in which I have considered leaving Barça, it was that season, "he acknowledged.
In addition, the Catalan defender was honest about his first years at the culé club.
"If in the year of debut, which
rose more than the sun
, they told me that at 34 years of age I would continue to play for Barça, I would not have given a penny," he confessed.

joked.
Criticisms of Bartomeu
Nor was he cut off when talking about former president
Josep Maria Bartomeu
. "I am not qualified to say if he is the worst president of Barça. Of those that I have lived, he must be there," he said with a laugh. "We all have our part to blame, but it is true that the club has not gone where all the Catalans want. Now I am hopeful and excited. The next 5 or 10 years will be very good for Barça," he continued.
On the other hand, he came out in defense of the Frenchman
Samuel Umtiti
, who has been whistled by his fans during this start of the season for not wanting to leave the Barça club: "He is fulfilling all his obligations. People have to be empathetic with the player. Samu's attitude is impeccable, he trains hard, "he explained.
"He has never missed a training session. Most of the people have worked in the same company for 30 years and do nothing. If I were in another club, like United for example, I would do the same as Umtiti," he concluded.
