Arsenal defender Ignasi Miquel has no regrets turning down Barcelona.
Before joining Arsenal, Miquel was actually rejected by Barca as a junior before they came back for him a second time.
The talented stopper told AS: "You learn to fight. When you get kicked out of Barcelona, you go down a bit because you think 'a team like that says you can't make it'. Then you think 'you will not be able to continue in football'. I continued because I like it, and in the end I was lucky.
"At 16 I was at UD Cornellà. Then came another offer from Barcelona, they wanted me again. I didn't know what to do. My parents said I should stay at Barcelona, as this meant staying at home. But then Arsenal's offer came and I said I wanted to go. They fully supported me."
