Barcelona boss Xavi spoke to reporters ahead of his team’s Copa del Rey last 16 clash against Athletic in a pretty interesting press conference.
The coach discussed Ousmane Dembele at some length, spoke about Ronald Araujo’s future, Memphis Depay’s fitness and captain Sergio Busquets.
Here are the best bits:
Xavi on Athletic
There are a very intense team. They work well. Marcelino has been one of the best coaches in Spanish football in recent years. They are very intense, aggressive, demanding, we have to be very precise. They have a great group of players, they work very well.
