As much as I love him and respect him, he did this to himself. Time to move on.
The main problem I have is the way the club acted - Pepe asked them to consider any offer from Barce - that's Pepe being open to them - So Pepe is being honest to them - and yet they arranged a loan without telling him. Also BR has stated that he told Pepe "Months ago that he would be signing a GK to give him competition" - so BR was after a GK regardless of what Pepe said. He then states that the two will fight out for the number 1 slot and then sends him out on loan !
It was wrong from the club to not tell Pepe that we're going to loan him. But do you really think that this whole thing would have happened if Reina didn't consider a move away from the club? Honest or not, he still wanted to leave and that's not really a thing that your boss would appreciate. When his move to Barca fell through, the club should have took note of his previous honesty and told him that they still want him out, but other than that, the club did nothing wrong. The management is not at fault for Pepe's departure, he did that to himself.
