Spain U21 coach Albert Celades has hinted Gerard Deulofeu needs to leave Barcelona.

Currently on-loan at Sevilla, Deulofoeu has shone for the U21s this past week.

Celades, a former Real Madrid and Barca midfielder, declared: "It is very difficult for Deulofeu to succeed in Barcelona. Succeeding in Barcelona is not available to all players, time will tell where Gerard Deulofeu can best reach his potential."

Deulofeu, a success with Everton last season, has struggled on-loan with Sevilla this term.

Celades added: "It is not easy for Deulofeu as he is not playing for Sevilla. I know the situation and the competition that exists in Sevilla."
