Arda stated that he received lots of offers but ignored them all as soon as the offer he wanted – Barca’s – came.

“I received lots of offers, but when I heard from Barça I pushed all the others aside.”

Arda also spoke about Xavi with a task of being his replacement, Arda replied saying the Barca legend is irreplaceable.

“Nobody can take Xavi’s place because he’s one of a kind in the world of football. He’ll always be a symbol of Barça.”

The Best Arda…

“I don’t think that anyone has ever been like, nor will anyone ever be like Messi”

On his shirt number, an issue Barca fans have been contemplating whether he’ll inherit Xavi’s #6. However, Arda didn’t sound bothered with the issue.

“I don’t care about my shirt number. I’ll decide that after talking to my new teammates.”
