Chumi has been in the headlines over the past 24 hours for reasons he wouldn't have wanted, after it emerged that he was ineligible when he took part in Barcelona's Copa del Rey first leg against Levante.
The 19-year-old centre-back was suspended for that game, but he did nothing wrong and the Catalan club have been keen to make this clear to him.
"Don't worry, this situation is not your fault," the coaching staff said to him ahead of training on Friday.
He trained as normal and it was just another day for the defender.
Ernesto Valverde has taken on responsibility, telling the press on Thursday evening that he was aware of the player's league suspension but that they believed he could still be used in the Copa del Rey.

No mistake there, rules were changed since November of last year,so no need to panic. Barcelona remained in the competition.

let this type of mistake never repeat itself. it is quite embarrassing that a club with it's status as Barca will be disqualified because of avoidable issues.

wait what.. who are these people who think chumi's responsible for this.. he's only responsible for his own ban nothing else... this situation is not his fault.. i think it's due to those unclear rules.. because i don't think that valverde would line up illegal deliberately.. barca must win the case here..
