Dani Olmo is frustrated being blocked from a move away by Dinamo Zagreb.
The wing-back was interesting AC Milan, Tottenham and Atletico Madrid.
But Dinamo Zagreb's €40m price-tag put a stop to any move.
"I think this price tag is too high," Olmo told Sportske Novosti.
"Not because I think I'm worth less, but because I play in the Croatian league and the foreign clubs think about it. Realistically, it is difficult for a player in the Croatian league to reach that price.
"I have nothing to hide: I wanted to leave Dinamo, I wanted to move and go to a strong club in one of the five major leagues. I thought this summer was the best time to leave."
