Cesc Fàbregas, former Barca man and present-day football traveler extraordinaire, commented on his former club this week. The Spaniard said that he specifically contacted Barcelona about signing Aurélien Tchouaméní, who of course is now a Madrid man.
“I know Tchouaméni very well. I spoke to people at Barça about signing him,” he said.
“I thought he was a great player for the future, but financially he couldn’t be signed. I gave my opinion to another former team and in the end, he went to the rival club. You have to take advantage of market opportunities.
