Ez Abde has informed Barcelona his decision to stay at the club and reject the several offers on the table to leave before the end of the summer transfer window, according to Diario SPORT.
The Morocco international was pondering his future and wanted assurances that he would have real minutes under Xavi Hernández this season instead of going out on loan again in search of regular football. Real Betis made a formal offer the winger and several other European clubs approached Barça to express their interest, and for a while it seemed as though Abde would end up leaving.
