The Barcelona man has been used all over the pitch

However now he wants a fixed role and a lot of minutes

Sergi Roberto has been used as a wildcard in recent seasons, except when he was the first choice right-back, which has stopped him from earning a fixed place in the starting line-up. 

As a professional, hhe has always acepted playing whever the coach needed him too, but he has taken a step forward and wants a regular place. The player knows Ernesto Valverde wants him in the centre of the pitch, rotating in pre-season between interior and defensive pivot. Usually he replaced Andres Iniesta on the left interior role, but he also played in front of the defence like in the second half of the friendly against Nastic in Tarragona.
