The Japanese starlet joined Barcelona as a 10-year-old and spent four years at the Camp Nou but was forced to leave after the club were sanctioned for breaking FIFA regulations on signing young players.
Kubo went to FC Tokyo and was linked with a return to Barcelona but has now been snapped up by Real Madrid instead.
Here’s what Vives had to say when asked about the 18-year-old and why Barcelona did not make a move.
