The player has claimed that he tried till the end to convince the club to allow him to leave.
“It was hard, I tried until the last day but they told me that since I was an important player, one of the leaders and captains, they needed me at the beginning of preseason because the clubs close their business in the preseason and I was one of the keys, I was telling them that for me it was going to be something unique but it wasn’t possible,” he said.
