Ilias Akhomach has spoken about why he’s left Barcelona following his exit this summer on a free transfer.
The youngster looked to have a bright future at Barcelona but failed to make the breakthrough into the first team and his contract at the club was not renewed.
Ilias has since said an emotional farewell to Barca and signed for Villarreal. He’s now opened up on his time at Barcelona and the decision to move on.
“It’s hard to leave Barça, you’ve been training in the same place for thirteen years, with the same routine, but once I made the decision with my family and my agent, a decision that was mainly mine, I’m clear that it’s what I needed and it’s what I want,” he told Catalunya Radio.
