Nolito open to Barcelona move

Nolito open to Barcelona move

Celta Vigo attacker Nolito has revealed that he would only leave his current club if Barcelona were to make a move this summer.

The Spanish international scored 13 goals and registered 13 assists in La Liga last season, with his form a key part of what was a successful campaign for Celta.

It is understood that Barcelona will move for the 28-year-old if Pedro departs, and Nolito has said that Luis Enrique's side is the only club he would join this summer.

"Either I go there or I stay at Celta, it doesn't matter which other teams come in," Nolito, whose release clause is believed to stand in the region of £13m, is quoted as saying by AS.

"I have had a lot of offers, financially they were very lucrative, but I am happy here. I feel like a football player and I have noticed the affection of the fans. I'll repeat it again, either I go to Barcelona or I stay at Celta."

Should Nolito move to Camp Nou this summer, he would not be eligible to represent the Catalan outfit until January 2016.
