Sacked Sergi Guardiola apologises to Barcelona
Sergi Guardiola has defended himself after being sacked by Barcelona this week.
The midfielder's signing has been cancelled by Barcelona after he insulted Barça and Catalonia on Twitter - two years ago.
Guardiola told El Chiringuito: he wanted to “apologise to Barca and to Catalonia" and recognised that he had “made a mistake."
However, he also wanted to make clear that he “didn't write those tweets."
“It is a mis-understanding. It was in 2013 and I didn't even know they existed," he added.
“It was put on my profile, but it wasn't me. I ask for forgiveness a thousand times - I have learnt a difficult lesson."
Sergi said that he feels really bad - as do his family - but he said he “understands Barça's decision."
He continued: “If I had been in Barça's position, I would have done the same."
