Bojan happy at Barcelona
Table of Contents
Despite not featuring as much as he would have liked, Barcelona starlet Bojan Krkić claims that he is enjoying learning in a successful team.
Bojan, who scored both goals in Barça's 2-0 away win over Almería at the weekend, has been linked with a move to several clubs on loan, including Tottenham Hotspur most recently.
The 18-year-old has seen his first-team chances reduced under Pep Guardiola with just ten starts in all competitions this term.
But the La Masia graduate is determined to make the grade with the Catalans, but would not be adverse to the idea of going on loan to play regularly.
Bojan told EFE: "I came back thinking that I would have more time, be in the team more often but this is how things are and I am not unhappy.
"I am calm because I am continuing to improve and understand what being part of a winning team means. I am experiencing the other side and seeing how things work while playing less.
"What is important is to be happy with your work and to keep feeling positive and do everything you can to play.
"Then the coach has to choose his best team and the decision is no longer down to you. In a squad of 21 players there is a very high level.
"Last year things did not go well and I experienced the downside of playing football, but that has helped me.
"Titi (Thierry Henry) helped me with my progress because he also began very young like me and he was new to the squad as well and that was great because we have a very good understanding."
He added: "Since last season my aim has been part of the squad and to improve in all areas.
"This club has always been very special for me and I hope to stay here for many years to come.
"Nobody has ever presented me with the chance to go out on loan, but if one day that chance came we could talk about it."
