Barcelona coach Guardiola tells Rosell, Laporta: Leave me out of your war

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has told Joan Laporta and Sandro Rosell to leave him out of their feud. Former Barca president Laporta blames his successor for Guardiola's departure - which will happen tonight after the Copa del Rey final.

Guardiola insisted: "I've had a magnificent relationship with Laporta and also with President Rosell. I'm eternally grateful to both of them for allowing me to work. I've told both of them that I'm leaving, that I'm no longer around, and that I'm stepping aside. They shouldn't use my name for this."
