While FC Barcelona would be looking for a center forward this winter, Xavi would like to secure the services of Edinson Cavani. On the side of Barça's sports management, some doubts would emerge as to the physical condition of the former PSG striker.
Since his arrival on the Catalan bench in November, Xavi faces many challenges for the center forward position. Martin Braithwaite is currently injured when Sergio Agüero may be forced to retire due to his heart problems. The only number 9 available, Luuk de Jong , would not fit into Xavi's plans. Therefore, the Blaugrana coach would do everything possible to recruit Edinson Cavani during the winter transfer window.
Despite his management's doubts, Xavi wants Cavani

The Catalan daily adds that the 34-year-old striker could arrive in the form of a loan in Catalonia , while reducing his salary considerably.
