Moriba reacts to Koeman’s criticism of his contract stand-off
The young midfielder is yet to agree to a contract renewal at Camp Nou.
Following his contract stand-off with Barcelona,
Ilaix Moribais frozen out of the Catalans’ first team. The Spanish giants have reportedly provided the academy star with two offers, which were rejected by the player’s representatives.
Ronald Koeman
reacted to Moriba’s contract situation on Friday.
“I spoke with him two or three weeks ago. More as a person than as a coach. His (Moriba’s) situation is horrible,”
Koeman told
Marca.
“My advice is that money is not the most important thing at this stage of his career.
“It is playing games. I am very disappointed because it is not the most important thing.”
Moriba, who is currently playing for Barcelona B, reacted to the interview by posting a quote on his Instagram
account.
“Thousands of rumours and nobody knows the truth.”
Moriba wrote.
Moriba is yet to speak in detail about the contract negotiations. However, the 18-year-old has been heavily judged by the supporters who believe he has refused to renew his contract because of financial reasons.
