Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez has talked about the possibility of Argentine star Lionel Messi returning to the Catalan club next summer
Messi left Barcelona last summer after his contract expired, joining Paris Saint-Germain
Speculation about the possibility of the 35-year-old returning to Barcelona did not end, as press reports appeared that this could happen at the end of the current season
When asked about this, Xavi said in statements published by the Spanish newspaper “Marca”: “Let’s see how things go.”
Xavi said: “Lewandowski’s numbers in front of goal? His efficiency is very high, the rest of the players have to help, but Robert’s goals are always welcome”
He added: “Sergi Roberto? I spoke to him last year, when there were doubts about whether he would renew, he was clear to me, he is a very important unbridled energy, a player of high value despite the criticism
He continued: “Sergi Roberto trains and always plays well and does not cause any problems, all coaches want players like him”
He continued: “Pedry? There are always things to improve, the midfielders have to go into the penalty area, we ask Pedri to create chances, so he is important because he can be, just like Xavi, de Jong or Casey”
He confirmed: “Javi has developed a lot, he’s young but really mature, it’s great how he jumps under pressure, he’s 18 years old, but already at an amazing level”
