The midfielder was told by new coach Ronald Koeman to find himself a new club, though Puig is reluctant to leave.

And Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, while speaking on El Chiringuito, says the youngster has the support of Bartomeu.

"Riqui Puig stays at Barcelona because Bartomeu has imposed him on Koeman," Inda revealed.

"And there is already trouble for this and also because they have not brought anyone who he has asked for."

Indeed, Koeman is still waiting for a first signing to be made since his appointment.
