Tello: Everyone who watched football knows Barcelona didn't need Negreira to win back then

In "Otra Ronda," a late-night program on Radio Marca hosted by Carlos Vicente, Tello looked back on his time at Barcelona.

Guardiola discovered you

"Guardiola pulled me aside and told me I didn't realize the ability I had. In training, I used to go up against defenders like Alves, Abidal, and Puyol, and he would tell me, 'You don't realize it.'"

The Negreira case had a negative impact on Barcelona

"Yes, it's always sad. Everyone who has watched football knows that you'll never see a team play like that again. I don't think we needed Negreira or anyone else to win matches. I had never heard of Negreira before, and referee matters were never discussed in the dressing room."

Experience as a teammate of Messi

"I will always cherish the wonderful memories of playing alongside the best player in the world, the best player in history. Being able to admire such a player every day, he made everything look so easy—how he won games and how he helped his teammates. He was, is, and always will be an irreplaceable player."
