Girona's star striker, Cristhian Stuani, told RAC1's 'Tu Diras' radio programme that the interest from Barça was real. As revealed by SPORT, Stuani was one of the people on the club's shortlist in the January transfer window but they eventually signed Kevin Price Boateng instead.
"Yes, there was interest from Barcelona. I'm proud that a team as great as Barcelona thought about me. But I'm also happy about signing a new deal with Girona," the Uruguayan forward confessed.
His contract at Girona doesn't include a clause should they be relegated from LaLiga. "No, there's no relegation clause. I'm convinced that we won't be relegated. Our objective is to remain in the division," concluded Stuani.

Trying to get this guy to my 1860 Münich in fm19. He keeps saying it would be a bad career move, and I get that, but damn say it in a nicer way. Van Persie didnt want to join either, said the same thing. Xavi was a straight savage, but hes like 39, still doesn’t want to come. Are there any decent young players worth like 250k that can play second division?

Great finisher and header of the ball. Not fast, terrible dribbler and not much in terms of crossing. A masterstroke for Karanka to play him on the wing at Boro...

Before he scored his goal today.. he was accountable 52.2% of Girona’s goals this season.. if it wasn’t for him they will definitely be in the bottom 3.

He was always decent and always worked his arse off. Karanka played him on the right and everyone could see he was wasted there.

Christhian Stuani in solid form for Girona this season, I can c y he was linked to Barça. Pity he's old (32). We need a striker who can offer us at least 5yrs. Someone Messi can mold in these last seasons of his... :'(

The funny thing is he has played less games against Madrid and Barca than man utd have. He even beat Real Madrid which United have failed at. Yeah, amazing indeed 😂
