Betis Sevilla
“Betis are a direct rival. We have a great opportunity and we have to achieve the club’s minimum objectives. They are a great rival, with a great coach, but we have to compete well to secure the Champions League. (…) “The Cup title has given them a lot of confidence, they are in a great moment… You have to congratulate the club, the coach, the players… And also to think that they can still qualify for the League of Nations. Champion”.
Gerard Pique
“Tomorrow Pique won’t be there, it’s a shame because he gives us a lot and we’ll see how he evolves so that he can play the next games”.

Real Madrid
“We have to be honest. Barça and Madrid are antagonists but that must not make us forget what we have. We are in these circumstances, with the minimum objective of entering C1. Next year he will have to think about winning titles”.
The Gavi extension
“Gavi is very important. An actor for the present and for the future. It would be great news to close the renewal. I know that his will, that of his representative, Iván de la Peña, is the same as ours, continue at Barça”.
