Bonano seeking new home

Roberto Bonano has admitted he fears his time at Barcelona is drawing to an end - after falling out of favour at the club.

The 33-year-old Argentine goalkeeper believes he will be sold at Christmas, and is keen to stay in Europe.

"I don't feel like a footballer any more," insisted Bonano, "because I have not had a chance to play at Barcelona.

"The coach doesn't even talk to me so I would like to leave.

"I feel like an ex-player of Barcelona.

"I can understand not being in the team but I can't understand why I have been separated from the squad.

"It's almost as if I am going to transmit something negative to the other players.

"I want to leave as soon as possible - nobody likes going through something like this.

"I still have a chance to play for other teams so I would like the chance to talk to some of them ahead of the transfer window opening.

"Last summer I had a few offers but nothing happened because I could not come to an agreement.

"I will only be calm when I have signed something and I have a contract.

"I have been told by [Barca vice president] Sandro Rosell that they will transfer me in December.

"I would prefer to stay in Europe, so if they find me a club here then it will be great.

"If I could continue in Spain that would be even better.

"But my priority is to play football - so I am open to any serious offer from any country."
