Even with the buyout clause of the Spanish player being 150 million euro° and the player having made clear that he doesn't want to leave Barcelona, Pérez plans to keep on trying.

Asked about his future, Iniesta said earlier this week in an interview with the club's official media that he has no intention of listening to interest from any other clubs: "I hope that everyone is listening to me now even though I have said this many times. I came here aged 12. Barça and Catalunya have given everything to me and my family. The only thing I want to do now is to dedicate my sporting career to Barça. That is my desire and I hope to see out the rest of my career here."
