Andres Iniesta has explained his “misunderstanding” with Barcelona president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, after the 5-0 win over Espanyol and says he is in no rush to sign a new contract.
Last week, Bartomeu told Mundo Deportivo that Barca had an “agreement in principle” for Iniesta to extend his career-long association with the club.
Iniesta refuted this when briefly questioned by reporters at Barcelona’s El Prat airport on Wednesday, but has now clarified his position.
“When there is a principle of an agreement, it is understood that everything is done. And it is not done,” he told reporters.
“I have been talking for some time. Things are going as they are. My only desire is to perform to the maximum and win titles with the club.
“I am not clear when I will make the decision. I do not think about it. My head, my heart and my body will decide.
“This is my home but the situation is what it is and we will see what happens.
“I feel calm. It is normal, when you are in this situation, to value many things. I’m very focused on what is mine. When there is news, people will know by the usual means.”
The 33-year-old’s current deal expires at the end of this season.
