"Unsuccessful in finding a place in the Barcelona team, Riqui Puig is making cardinal changes in his career: he is moving to play in another continent. Los Angeles Galaxy officially announced that they have acquired R. Puig for free from the Catalan team. Barcelona will receive 50% of the profit from the next sale. The club also retains the option to buy back. Last season, R. Puig played only 17 matches for Barcelona, with only 2 of them starting, including La Liga and Champions League battles. The academy graduate scored 2 goals and made 2 assists representing the Catalans. In the Galaxy club, the Catalan will join Diego Costo and Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez.
