Barcelona have confirmed the sale of midfielder Riqui Puig to MLS club LA Galaxy after leaked footage came to light of him criticising a club teammate.
Puig started just two La Liga matches under boss Xavi Hernandez and only ever started 11 league games across his career at the club, despite enjoying a great deal of hype from the club’s fanbase following his exciting youth career.
The central midfielder made 57 first-team appearances after joining the club in 2013, aged 14, with the Catalan giants retaining a repurchase option for the player and also entitling themselves to 50 percent of any future sale.
