Spanish press reports revealed that Xavi Hernandez, coach of the first team football team at the Spanish club Barcelona, wants to sign a contract with the English Manchester City star during the upcoming summer transfer period.
\nIt is noteworthy that Barcelona defeated Girona by four goals to two in the match that brought them together in the Spanish League competitions, thus making Real Madrid win the La Liga title for the thirty-sixth time in its history.<\/p>\n
According to the Spanish newspaper \u201cSport\u201d, Xavi demanded that Barcelona president Joan Laporta sign a contract with Portuguese Bernardo Silva, the star of the first football team at Manchester City, in the summer Mercato.
\nThe newspaper said that Xavi is determined to bring Silva to the ranks of the Catalan team to support him strongly in the next season, as Xavi believes that the player will add unprecedented strength to the Catalan team because of his abilities and style that suits Barcelona\u2019s style.<\/p>\n
The newspaper added that Xavi asked Laporta not to buy the contract of Portuguese player Joao Cancelo because of his repeated mistakes in defensive coverage, as it would cost Barcelona\u2019s coffers a large sum, which Xavi believes would be preferable to investing in contracting with other deals.
\nThe newspaper concluded that Xavi is one of the biggest opponents of the Manchester City star continuing in Barcelona next season, and the player is now closer to returning to Manchester again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
