Sergio Busquets to Leave Barcelona by End of Season

On Wednesday, Barcelona announced that Sergio Busquets will depart the Catalonian team by the end of this season after 15 years.

The 34-year-old captured over 30 trophies during his 15-year spell stay at Barcelona, including eight La Liga championships and three Champions League titles. 

The midfielder informed Barcelona of his decision of departing Camp Nou earlier this month.

Busquets has confirmed the news in an emotional video released on Barca's social media accounts. 

He said: “The time has come to announce this will be my last season at Barcelona. It has been an unforgettable journey. Since I was a child coming to the matches or watching them on TV. I always dreamed of playing with this shirt in this stadium.

He concluded: “It has been an honour, a dream, a source of pride, and meant everything to defend and represent this badge for so many years, but everything has a beginning and an end, and although it has not been an easy decision, I think the time has come...Being a Barca fan is the best thing there is." 

It was teased that the midfielder is seeking a move to the Saudi Pro League, at the same time of the reports about Messi's move to Al Hilal.
