Xavi Presses Laporta To Complete Another Deal

Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez is targeting another winter deal during the current Mercato, after Vitor Roque joined from Atletico Paranaense.

Barcelona hopes that 2024 will be more successful than the last few months in 2023, where the Catalan giant suffered this season, as it occupies the third place in the Spanish league with 41 points, and with a difference of more than 7 points behind Real Madrid and Girona.

In order to improve the situation, Xavi believes that reinforcements are necessary, given the team's recent suffering from injuries.

The Spanish newspaper Sport reported that the arrival of Rocky is not enough for the Spanish coach who is pressing for the signing of a midfielder, so much so that he "insisted to Deco (sporting director) and Juan Laporta (president) that a deal should be completed this month".

"That will only happen if Barcelona complete the sale of the club's Studios, which has looked increasingly likely over the past couple of days,"she added.

Xavi needs a midfielder who can play as a pivot and also in the heart of Defense, and Alex Garcia is quite suitable, but the deal for the Girona star does not look very likely, according to the newspaper "Sport".
