I think he's made it pretty clear about his apprehension of joining Barcelona. Perhaps a move to Sevilla (should they lose Fabiano and/or Kanoute) or Valencia (should they lose Villa and/or Silva) might be better options for him. He'll be able to play for a quality club without having to worry about the spotlight and media pressure on him.
