Barcelona goalkeeper wants summer exit, says “I want to be playing football again”

Barcelona goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen has indicated his desire to leave Nou Camp this summer.

The Dutch international has not featured in a La Liga game for Ernesto Valvede’s side this season, and now appears to have had a change of heart after stating earlier this season that he would stay for 2019-20.

“At the end of the season I will go on holiday and then hopefully I will have a new club where I can play, he told Dutch TV channel Ziggo Sport

“I want to be playing football again.”

Where the 30-year old chooses to go next is not yet clear, with a return to his native country a strong possibility.

The former Ajax was also asked about current stars at the Champions League semi finalists, and he gave his full backing for Barcelona to make a double switch for Frenkie De Jong and Matthijs De Ligt, reports Footbal Espana.

“The deal for De Jong is already done, but I am not ssure about the ssituation with De Ligt.

“But if he has the chance to go to Barcelona, I would take it.”
