Sergio Busquets has been a Barcelona player for 15 years and has held the midfield for the Catalan club as one of the best in his position, but this year, the idilic story between the two will come to an end. The spanish world champion has mad clear that he will definitively leave FC Barcelona at the end of the season. 

Only a miracle would change the fact that Barça are about to lose a player that is not easily replaced and in fact, doesn't even have a natural substitute currently at the squad. This, plus the fact that Busquets is Barcelona's captain will be a blow to the team's morale and the club is moving quick to find a suitable replacement for the spanish international.
