Demir spoke about his situation at the club earlier this month in an interview with AS and admitted he was looking for a way out of the club.
“The board of directors that brought me here is gone. Now there are other leaders and they think that the conditions of my contract are very high for Barcelona B. There has not been a decision yet.”
