Barcelona manager Xavi has great admiration for Tottenham midfielder Giovani Lo Celso and thinks he 'meets the midfielder profile sought' at Camp Nou.
The Barça legend believes he needs more players who can feed Robert Lewandowski and get assists.
Lo Celso has spent the last 18 months on loan at Villarreal and progressed well under Unai Emery, reaching the Champions League semi-finals with the club in 2021/22.
Xavi is interested in the Argentine, as reported by Mundo Deportivo.
The Spanish newspaper also claims that the manager likes Alex Baena, who has been on the books at Villarreal since joining their youth setup in 2011, but the 21-year-old has a €60million release clause and the Yellow Submarine want to keep him.
