Ivan Rakitic on Barcelona Exit Rumours: 'I Laugh About Everything They Say'
Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic says he laughs at rumours linking him with an exit from the Camp Nou and reiterated that he wants to stay with the Spanish champions.
The Croatian addressed speculation over his future after featuring in Barcelona's 4-2 La Liga win over former club Sevilla on Saturday, per ESPN FC's Samuel Marsden:
Samuel Marsden Rakitic: I laugh about everything they say about my future. I have three years on my contract here. I'm flattered other big clubs ask about me but I only see myself at Barça. Sometimes, you have to laugh with your coffee in the morning.
Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich are the latest club to have been linked with a summer move for Rakitic.
