Barcelona flop Alen Halilovic is making a return to Spanish La Liga after just a couple of months spent at the Bundesliga club Hamburg, the German news outlet Bild has confirmed.
The Croatian midfielder struggled in Germany and returns to Spain looking to make his first competitive appearance since October 2016.
