Riqui Puig: My only intention is to stay at Barcelona LaLiga Santander - Huesca vs Barcelona Willing to wait for chances

Riqui Puig realised a dream by playing in LaLiga Santander for Barcelona against Huesca.

Ernesto Valverde made a number of changes and the Catalans were held, but the youngster is appreciative that he was afforded the opportunity and hopes for many more at the club.

"I only want to stay here," he said after the game.

"It's my team, it's my parents' team and I've been here since I was a child.

"If it's up to me, I'll stay.

"I think I have to play more with Barcelona B and take advantage of chances whenever I get one."

Having appeared more often in the Copa del Rey this season, he was understandably excited to have played a prominent role in a LaLiga Santander match.

"LaLiga Santander is much more special than the Copa del Rey," he admitted.

"Few youth players have the chance to play in the league.

"I'm happy and it's a very special day for me."

Despite his build, he is a player who uses his body well, which he admits to having worked on when he was younger.

"It's one of my characteristics," he said.

"Since I was a child, I tried to get used to being physical because I was little."
