Barcelona manager Xavi has indicated the club’s intention to strengthen their squad during the January transfer window, particularly in the midfield area due to Gavi’s injury.

Xavi, who is at the helm of the Catalan giants, has made it clear that the team is looking to bring in a player with a similar profile to that of the injured Spanish midfielder Gavi. The La Liga side is keen on ensuring that the team remains competitive and well-equipped to handle the absence of key players.

Gavi, who plies his trade with Barcelona and operates primarily in the midfield, is currently sidelined due to an injury. His absence has created a void in the team’s midfield dynamics, prompting the need for a suitable replacement. The Spanish international is known for his versatility and has been a vital part of Barcelona’s squad.

The club’s pursuit of a new midfielder is a strategic move to maintain their performance levels across all competitions. With the January transfer window approaching, Barcelona is set to be active in the market to address the gap left by Gavi’s injury.

According to Xavi, Barcelona is always looking to “reinforce the pieces we are missing,” highlighting the proactive approach the club is taking to ensure they remain strong contenders in La Liga and beyond. The search for a new midfielder aligns with this philosophy, as Barcelona aims to sustain their tactical and competitive edge.
