"I have always wanted to play for “Barcelona”. I was really hopeful about it, but my agent said that this probably wouldn’t happen.

I was really hopeful. If it had come to pass, it would have been a true dream for me," said the 41-year-old specialist in the Villa SEG podcast.

Additionally, in 2015, while playing for Fenerbahçe, van Persie was close to transferring to Barcelona.
