Alvaro Nunez has no regrets leaving Barcelona.

After a season on-loan with Barca Atletic, Nunez rejected the chance to sign permanently and instead returned to parent club Athletic Bilbao.

He is now with B team, Amorebieta, and said of Barca: "It's another world because the reserve team is almost like a foreign professional team.

"My first two weeks I lived in the room with a Turk, Emre (Demir), who didn't even speak Spanish, he only spoke Turkish. You are there, one who is from Sondika, from Bilbao... which seems like a town compared to that.

"What I did notice is that in Athletic the reserve team is more united with the first team than it is there."
