Inigo Claims Laporta Lacks Funds for Barcelona Reunion

Veteran Player’s Transition to Al-Nassr

The experienced player, who had an outstanding previous season under Hansi Flick at Barcelona, made the switch to Al-Nassr in August.

Inigo’s Insight on Barcelona Return

While in Saudi Arabia for the Spanish Super Cup, Inigo addressed the media regarding the possibility of making a comeback to the Catalan club.

He stated to TV3: “It is unrealistic for (president Joan) Laporta to allocate such a large budget.”

Reflections on His Time at Barcelona

“In all honesty, I am quite content here. Naturally, I have a fondness for Barcelona; it was the highlight of my professional career. I truly experienced the essence of the Barça spirit. Regrettably, I will have to observe from a distance,” he added.

He continued, “I won’t be there for the final as my team plays the following day. João Cancelo has already demonstrated his abilities since arriving. He is definitely here to make an impact.”

In recent developments, Cancelo is expected to leave Al-Hilal and rejoin Barcelona shortly.
