Xavi is preparing for a busy summer of transfer activity at Barcelona.

On the back of winning a first La Liga title since 2019, Xavi is expected to strengthen his squad, with departing pair Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba in need of replacing.

Xavi has previously highlighted a new midfield pivot is a crucial objective, to fill the void of Busquets, with Alejandro Balde ready to step into Alba’s role.

A potential move for Lionel Messi looks to be growing increasingly unlikely with the former La Blaugrana talisman tipped to join Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal.

Amongst the names to potentially replace Busquets in the Barcelona engine room is Real Sociedad star Martin Zubimendi with Celta Vigo forward Gabri Veiga also a target, after he scored twice in the Galicians 2-1 win over Barcelona in their season finale.
