Mercato | Mercato – Barcelona: Xavi demands colossal reinforcement from Laporta!

Posted on December 20, 2021 at 10:00 am by AM

In search of offensive reinforcements this winter, Xavi has set his top priority, namely Ferran Torres, the Manchester City striker.

Arrived on the bench of FC Barcelona a few weeks ago, Xavi quickly made the same observation as all observers, namely that the offensive sector needs to be reinforced as a matter of urgency. Indeed, Barça scored only 2 goals during the group stage of the Champions League. Only Malmo and Dynamo Kiev did worse with just one achievement. The Catalan strike force is therefore very far from its reputation. A situation caused by the departures of Lionel Messi and Antoine Griezmann as well as the early retirement of Sergio Agüero .

Xavi is pushing for Ferran Torres

Therefore, Xavi wants to attract offensive reinforcements this winter. And according to information from Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan technician has made Ferran Torres his top priority. If only one player is to land in January, Xavi wants it to be the versatile striker from Manchester City who already has an agreement to join Barça . Pep Guardiola is not opposed to his departure, but the Blaugrana club must now find common ground with the Citizens who are demanding € 50m. The two clubs would come closer to an agreement, but FC Barcelona would like to postpone the payment of this amount. In any case, we must act quickly, since Xavi wants to count on Ferran Torres by January 12 and his first Clasico on the Catalan bench, facing Real Madrid in the semifinals of the Spanish SuperCup.
