It was almost signed, but to last hour there were problems, put the Madrid and my family was adapted to Spain. I happened it very bad the first day that went back to the Camp Nou of white. It was a day difìcil. There were a lot of feelings. It cost me a lot of. But we are professional and it is necessary to follow...".
