PSG midfielder would be a great addiction to Barca, says legend
Barcelona legend Xavi Hernandez has said that Paris Saint Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot would be a great addition to his former side.
According to reports, Barcelona officials had met with Rabiot to agree on personal terms ahead of his proposed move to Camp Nou. The French Ligue 1 side is said to be prepared to allow the midfielder to leave for a fee in the region of €40million. And Xavi thinks the France international would make a shrewd signing but is wary of talking up prospective deals, having seeing Antoine Griezmann decide to stay at Atletico Madrid despite being linked with a switch to Camp Nou.
"He's a player of an excellent level technically. He could play perfectly as a central midfielder at Barca. He could contribute a lot, but that's already entering the realms of speculation," said Xavi.
"I've been asked a lot about Griezmann this summer and, in the end, he stayed at Atletico. But if Rabiot comes, he'd be a great signing."
The Catalans have already strengthened their midfield in the transfer window by bringing forward the arrival of Arthur from Gremio in a €39m deal.
