“Although as a child who grew up in Switzerland with Croatian parents, I can say that Seville is my home. I’m leaving now, but I’ll be back again!”were some of Ivan Rakitic’s words in the farewell message to the friends of Seville.
The 35-year-old Croatian has developed into one of the greatest footballers in the club’s history and is now leaving for the second time to join Al Shabab.
As can be seen from the press conference he gave before traveling to Saudi Arabia it is very difficult for him to say goodbye to her town, team and friends.
