Xavi Hernandez has given green light to Deco to pursue two players for Barcelona this summer

Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez is reportedly open to remaining in the job beyond this summer, despite months of claiming that he would not change his mind on his decision to leave this summer. He has also begun discussing plans for next season and potential signings this summer with Sporting Director Deco.

One of those is RB Leipzig’s Dani Olmo. Deco was seen meeting representatives from his agency last week, although since it has also been reported that this was instead to discuss the role of Mikayil Faye in the first team, who is represented by Olmo’s father. Xavi likes the former La Masia talent, and he has a release clause of €50m this summer.

Meanwhile Real Betis midfielder Guido Rodriguez has also been offered to Barcelona, and Xavi has given the OK to Deco to go after the Argentine too. Rodriguez is out of contract this summer and available on a free, and while MD say that he was not their first choice for the pivot position, he is a player that Xavi likes.

A move to sign Rodriguez seems much more feasible than one for Olmo at the time of writing, as Barcelona will need to make major sales in order to contemplate pursuing big money deals this summer. As of last Friday, Barcelona were yet to make an official approach for Guido Rodriguez, but he has been linked to the Catalan side frequently over the last 18 months.

  1. A variety of bipolarty related mentaI diseases are apparently not limited to fanbase only.

    Being associated with this club is a mentaI disease in itself lmaooooo

  2. Just see the rubish he is requesting for! Kai!! Why do i keep supporting this club. Laporta was a terrible decision.

  3. What is wrong with this Xavi guy, does he think at all…. Why the hell on earth will you buy Olmo and Guido, these are average players for crying out loud… Pls stop all these rubbish

  4. I have watched Barcelona few times and I think they don’t have very good defence especially Ronald Araujo he is not a clever player who can read the game,he can’t command the back four as a Central defender and unfortunately he is the Coach favourite because he takes instructions raw as they are. he involves himself where it’s not necessary and the worst he is not comfortable with the ball. I want to suggest that they look at a better young defender, they had Kessie old as he is but was far better than Araujo. Colour does not help that much you get rid of good black players will never benefit the team.

  5. Guys Barcelona don’t have money all we can do is signs free players and maybe one player around 50-60m would have gone for the likes of ndidi but clubs with more money are also after him besides that Barcelona is the only club that is -2Billion in debt that that’s fighting in champions league and top2 in la Liga Iam grateful we are even in operational its not easy and laliga financial structure makes it hard plus we didn’t take that detramental CVC deal for 50 years those clubs will soon start dancing to their music whithen 10years
    We have la Messia to produce young stars 2nd free market players not always the best but look at Christianson’s he is doing good 3rd is expensive players that Landed us were we are today maybe the new stadium and new shirt sponsors will help with the financial stability soccer have changed barsa is just trying to survive and we have to do our best to be behind it
