Xavi off to New York City?

Xavi will leave Barcelona this summer, with a move to New York City FC expected to be announced this week.

The Blaugrana veteran had been thought to be on his way to the Middle East, but after that move fell through, his future was in flux.

Rumours emerged that the Camp Nou outfit could offer the Spain international a new deal, but Mundo Deportivo insist that is not the case.

The paper claims that Xavi has agreed to join the new MLS franchise, and team up with former teammate David Villa in America.

An announcement on the transfer is likely to come very soon, and there could even be a tribute to the midfielder at Barcelona on Saturday.
