Las Pamas coach Garcia Pimienta: There's life after Barcelona

Las Pamas coach Javi Garcia Pimienta says he still doesn't why he was sacked by Barcelona.

Garcia Pimienta was axed as Barca B coach by president Joan Laporta soon after his election victory.

He told Radio Cope: "I don't know why they fired me.

"They told me that I would continue one more year And after two weeks, they fired me. It was Rafa Yuste who told me. It felt bad because they told me that I was still going and in June, when they told me no, they already had all the teams settled with their coaches.

"Six months later that made me able to sign for Las Palmas. There is life outside of any club."
