Note that the legendary Spaniard moved to Vissel Kobe from Barcelona in 2018. During this time, he managed to play 113 matches for the club, scoring 26 goals and providing 25 assists. With the team, he won the Japanese Cup and Super Bowl.
However, this season the veteran has barely appeared on the field, playing only five matches. The contract is valid until January 31, 2024.
We remind you, earlier it became known that one of the legendary veterans, Jordi Alba, will leave Barcelona in the summer.
