Presidential candidate Josep Maria Bartomeu had
made it clear he planned to bring the versatile
winger to Camp Nou should he win this month's
election, claiming head coach Luis Enrique asked

player back to Atletico before July 20 should the
new president, set to be elected on July 18, not
wish to sanction his arrival.
