FC Barcelona begins its adventure in LaLiga this Saturday. Xavi Hernandez's team has just closed a large transfer market with the arrival of Iikay Gundogan, Vitor Roque and Iñigo Martinez. However, Xavi Hernández spoke at a press conference and shared the great need that the club has in the current market.

 

Xavi Hernandez is aware that FC Barcelona needs a right-back for the following season. Given this, the journalist Santi Ovalle suggests that Joao Cancelo is an extremely viable option for the club. Mainly because of the player's desire to wear the club's colors, as well as his current situation at FC Barcelona. However, Xavi shares that it's not just about Cancelo.

"We need two more signings"; the FC Barcelona coach confessed at a press conference with the Catalan club prior to the game against Getafe. The club has a unique opportunity with a possible return of Neymar, but it is also analyzing profiles such as Bernardo Silva, according to SPORT. However, for now, the priority is to strengthen the club's right wing.

 

Is Joao Cancelo the primary option for FC Barcelona?

According to the journalist Santi Ovalle, the right-back is a priority option for Xavi Hernandez and he would have to arrive on loan and include a purchase option, possibly mandatory. Manchester City no longer have the player, due to alleged problems with Pep Guardiola and therefore, Xavi Hernandez seeks to take advantage of this opportunity to dress him as a culé.
