Barcelona coach Xavi talks up Man City pair Gundogan, Bernardo

Barcelona coach Xavi has talked up the prospect of signing Manchester City pair Bernardo Silva and Ilkay Gundogan.

Xavi admits he rates both midfielders.

Of Bernardo, he told Mundo Deportivo: "It would be wonderful, but he's a Manchester City player and it's very difficult."

On Gundogan, Xavi also said: "Have I already spoken to him?

"I can't say anything. What I can say is that any player we want to sign and we have the possibility to talk to him, he tells us he wants to come. Everyone wants to come to Barcelona. All. I haven't seen any players who say to us: 'No, I'd rather go to another club'. None."
