Ronald Koeman gives Riqui Puig some hope after series lack of game time

coach believes the youngster has been working hard to convince him.

The 21-year-old has played for just 3 minutes this season.

"Riqui Puig is one of the youngsters who has to work hard to have minutes. These last few days he's been really trying to convince me, I think he deserves to play," Ronald Koeman said at the press conference, quoted by Mundo Deportivo.

Before the start of the 2020-2021 campaign, Koeman advised Riqui to leave on loan to get more opportunities. The promising midfielder has played for just 3 minutes so far this season.

Barca's congested schedule and Sergio Busquets' injury could allow Puig to play more in the upcoming games against Atletico and Dynamo Kyiv.
