Ajax full-back Nicolas Tagliafico admitted to being pretty broken up about not being able to move to Barcelona in the transfer window. Barca’s priorities during the winter window focused mainly on the attack and left the already weak full-back position unbolstered.

“I feel that opportunities can’t be missed and it is a unique opportunity, to be able to go to a club like Barca.
“For me, it was a dream opportunity and they could not help me in the end.
