The Catalan midfielder wants to represent Spain in London after the national team’s stint in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032 at the start of summer.
Alongside Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Busquets-c33048 is one of the untouchables in Vicente Del Bosque’s La Roja squad for Euro 2012.
Barring any injury mishaps, La Masia academy graduate will travel with the national team to Ukraine and Poland. However, the tenacious midfielder has lofty ambitions for the upcoming summer, eyeing an Olympics scalp with the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Junior-c20060 La Roja squad.
Busquets revealed his aspirations to represent http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 in London, but stated that selection is out of his hands. Despite the fact that the two events are separated by less than three weeks, the two-time UEFA Champions League winner announced his availability.
"I want to go to the European Championship and the Olympics, but it's not up to me," the 23-year-old Catalan said while talking to Madrid-based Spanish sports daily, AS.
"The two coaches [http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Del Bosque and Luis Milla] know it's my dream. I will do everything to go."
For the moment, the assertive midfielder is focusing on Barcelona’s Champions League second leg fixture against Bayer Leverkusen. Busquets cautioned against relaxing in the match at the Camp Nou as he praised the Never-kusen’s attacking pedigree.
"The result of the away leg was very good, but all is not decided," he warned.
"They will come to attack; to create chances. [But] that will open spaces in their defence, as in the second half in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904."
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003, AC Milan and Bayern Munich.
As the odds favour Pep Guardiola’s charges, with injuries afflicting their squad, retaining the European title likening to Arrigo Sacchi’s AC Milan is a daunting task for the outfit from Catalonia.
So far, Barcelona have already added three titles to their midst, and can add another one in the shape of Copa del Rey.
