Not long ago, Barcelona midfielder Fermin was interviewed and talked about the interests of other teams in their own right this summer.

He said: "Well, in the final analysis, my priority has always been to stay in Barcelona. I came here at the age of 12, and being able to enter the first team has always been my dream."

"Other clubs are interested in it, of course, always a kind of appreciation for me, but in fact, the idea is to stay in Barcelona and succeed here."
