Bojan focused on Roma future

New Roma signing Bojan Krkic wants to put his bitter departure from European champions Barcelona behind him.

The Spain Under-21 international criticised Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola after signing for his new Serie A employers on Friday.

But Krkic says he has moved on and is focused on producing his best form for Luis Enrique’s team.

“Well, first of all I’m very happy to be here. I came from a big club, but I have moved to a big club and for me it is a dream to be here,” Krkic said on Monday.

“Regarding Guardiola and Barcelona, for me it is finished. I only want to think about Roma.”

“Coming here to work for Luis Enrique makes me think a lot of things. It was because of him that I made my decision to come here and I want to thank him for that.”

The 20-year-old is hopeful of taking inspiration from former Arsenal and Barcelona forward Thierry Henry after choosing to wear the number 14 jersey this season.

After his departure from La Liga, Krkic admitted he had not spoken to Guardiola since May’s UEFA Champions League final and said he did not think the Spaniard was the best coach in the world.
