The top Spanish basketball player has spent a season in the United States in the NBA.

Spanish basketball star, Juan Carlos Navarro, has said, during his presentation yesterday as a new player for Barcelona, that he has not returned to the club for money, but because he wanted to ‘come back home and play in my all-time club’.

He said that his short experience last season in the United States NBA was positive where he had come close to the record for triple for a rookie in the professional league.

Barça chairman, Joan Laporta, said it was a great day because a son of Barcelona had returned home. He denied that the players return had any link to the vote of no confidence being faced by Laporta later this week.
