At 1:30 a.m. next Monday, in the 11th round of La Liga, Elche will challenge Barcelona away. This game is of special significance to Elche goalkeeper Peña, who will face his old club. In response, the former Barcelona goalkeeper talked about his feelings at a press conference.

■Pernia joined Elche on loan from Barcelona this summer. Barcelona did not set a "fear clause" (that is, a clause prohibiting playing against the home club) in the loan contract, so if the Elche coach allows, he will be able to play against his old club on Sunday. Peña admitted that he faced the game with passion and thanked Barcelona for allowing him to play.

Peña said: "I have had the opportunity to play consecutively in the last few games, which is very important to me. It is always special to return to a place where you have been and spent happy times."

■ Peña emphasized that he has no grudges against Barcelona.

Peña said: "I still have a contract with Barcelona, ​​but at the moment I am playing for Elche wholeheartedly."

■Sunday's game will be one of the most difficult challenges of the season. Playing away to Barcelona is never easy, but Peña believes Elche still has a chance.

Peña said: "We are facing one of the strongest teams in the world."

■About opponent Yamal

Peña said: "If Lamin reaches 100%, he will be almost unstoppable. But this will inspire us to do better."
