Rakitic opens to PSG: 'I would like to work with Emery'

FC Barcelona did not have a great season in 2016-17 as they failed to win both la Liga title and the UEFA Champions league title. They did win the Copa del Rey but it was still a very disappointing season for the Blaugrana. Luis Enrique was let go of his duties as Valverde is now the new man in charge of Barcelona. Ivan Rakitic is a player who did not have a great season for Barcelona as his future is now in doubt. Here is what he had to say on the matter in an interview with Marca:

"Emery or Luis Enrique? I would surely like to work with Unai again. We are talking about two coaches who have had a significant impact in my career. They are both very similar as they love football. They never want to lose and I have a lot of respect for both of them. Luis Enrique will be a big loss for us, let's see. He was the one who wanted to sign me at Barcelona and he always had a lot of confidence in me ".
