Luis Alberto rules out Barcelona move
Lazio midfielder, Luis Alberto has rejected the chance to move to Barcelona. The Liverpool flop has stated family reasons for him to reject the move to Camp Nou.
Speaking to La Repubblica, Alberto said, "It is important for me that my family is well here in Rome and we find ourselves well.
