New Barcelona coach Xavi wants winger signing; two names top list

New Barcelona coach Xavi wants to sign a winger in January.

Mundo Deportivo says Xavi is eager to add a new wide player, which he sees as essential to the success of his system.

And he has two targets in mind - Manchester City attacker Ferran Torres and RB Leipzig ace Dani Olmo.

Olmo, who still has a contract with Leipzig until 2024, can play on both wings, which is an important condition for Xavi. He is also a former Barca junior.

Torres, meanwhile, has been played centrally by City manager Pep Guardiola this season and is in his second year with the Premier League champions after his move from Valencia.
