Jaume Costa interview: Is he coming back to Villarreal?
Last season he was not looking forward to playing for Valencia as his head was in Villarreal, as he feels they are the team of his life, and has always been thinking of being a Villarreal lifer until retirement if possible. As he recalls in the interview, some people didn’t like him and he felt that if he continued with Villarreal, he wouldn’t get any opportunity to play. Not being on the team for the friendly against La Nucia was an eye-opener for him.
