I.Rakitičius has made a decision - wants to leave "Barcelona"

"Barcelona" team midfielder Ivan Rakitic made an important decision.

As reported by "Marca", the Croatian, unhappy with his diminished role in the club, has decided to start a new stage in his career and leave the Catalan team already in January.

It is reported that the 31-year-old midfielder's departure would not be opposed by "Barcelona" head coach Ernesto Valverde.

In this "La Liga" season, I. Rakitic started only one match in the starting lineup, as well as came off the bench twice in UEFA Champions League group stage matches.

He did not manage to stand out with goals or assists in a short time.

I. Rakitic has been defending the colors of "Barcelona" since 2014, when the team paid 18 million euros to "Sevilla" for him.
