But we won’t let him leave mid-season. "The club have just reached the half-way point of the season, it is out of the question that we let go such a key player."I understand the feelings of Paulinho but hopefully he will understand the club.Despite receiving the offer from Barcelona, he still play each game to the best of his ability."I call on every player to learn from Paulinho’s professionalism." Paulinho revealed on Sunday that he hoped Guangzhou would not stand in his way over his desire to join Ernesto Valverde's side.But with Guangzhou, who are currently top of the CSL with 37 points from their opening 16 matches, reluctant to sell, he looks set to miss out on a switch to Camp Nou.</blockquote>
