Leo also shows that period for “Rac 1”. At that time, thanks to the chaos that was created from the tax issue, I wanted to leave. I wanted to leave Barcelona, I really wanted to leave Spain”.

I felt like I was being treated so badly, I didn't want to stay with Barcelona anymore. No one offered me an offer because they thought I would not move.

I can't hide it, it was a difficult situation for me and my family. It comforted me that my children were young and did not understand what was happening. I finally decided to stay, first of all for myself and my family”
