Barcelona coach Xavi reveals Deco talks over Gavi replacement

Barcelona coach Xavi says he’s talking with sports director Deco about signing a replacement for ACL victim Gavi.

Barca president Joan Laporta has stated the squad is strong to handle Gavi’s forced absence.

But Xavi revealed: “Substituting Gavi? There is nothing to announce. We will speak with Deco to see what we can do.”

“I am in contact with the president and with Deco on a daily basis. We will announce what we deem appropriate. They know my position and I know theirs and from there, it is about finding a consensus.

“Evidently we are losing a footballer for the whole season, and we will see what we can do and we will see if we can bring someone in.”

He added: “This is not the time to talk about the market. We have Vitor Roque and we are looking at others.”
