The FC Barcelona coach appeared before the press on the eve of the Clasico against Real Madrid.
If Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Lionel Messi or Neymar are no longer the headliners, the Clasico remains the most followed match on the planet. This Saturday, FC Barcelona will host Real Madrid for a new clash which promises to be spectacular between the two rivals from the Iberian Peninsula. A match that will highlight a new generation of players.
In the ranks of Barça, Xavi should concoct a plan to reduce the influence of Jude Bellingham. Nicknamed “ M. one goal per match“, the England international has been hitting the screen since his arrival at Real from Borussia Dortmund last summer. Bellingham’s efficiency could be one of the keys to this matchup. But there is no question for the Blaugrana to focus on Real’s number 5.
Asked about Jude Bellingham, Xavi also responded by making a rather daring comparison. “Bellingham is very important for Madrid, he’s a great player. He can be decisive for his team like Joao Félix can be for us because he is also a key player for Barça. » After several difficult seasons at Atlético de Madrid then at Chelsea, Joao Felix, a classy and decisive player, has in fact relaunched himself in a team that suits his technical profile. Will the young Portuguese eclipse Bellingham on Saturday?
