Former Barcelona midfielder Xavi hopes Neymar will return to the Camp Nou, while saying there is no doubt about the qualities of the Paris Saint-Germain Brazilian star.
The 28-year-old Neymar has been speculated about a return to the La Liga giants during the summer transfer window, three years after he left from there to transfer to Paris Saint-Germain for 222 million euros.
Xavi does not give up any reason to stop Neymar from returning to Catalonia, saying that his former teammate was among the best players in the world.
“Why not? As for football, I have no doubt and I have lived with him in a locker room and he seems to me like a wonderful person, “the current Al-Sadd coach told DjMariiO in an interview given to his channel on Youtube.
“He was a professional player here in Barcelona and he would make a difference.”
“Then comes the social and bureaucratic problem. I don’t deal with those things. But on the pitch, he is among the top five players in the world.
Xavi was also optimistic about the transfer of Lautaro Martinez from Inter.
“I like him, who wouldn’t like him?” He is well noticed, gives depth to the team, finds space even when there are few. “Barcelona do a good job when they are interested,” added Xavi.
