Xavi ups the pressure on Sergino Dest to leave Barcelona as he snubs him from list of club's right-back options... while Man United is reportedly keen on the US international

Barcelona manager Xavi offered another indication Saturday of his plans - or lack thereof - for Sergino Dest, as the club continues their efforts to raise funds and register new signing Jules Kounde.

Talking about the club's right-back position, Xavi mentioned Ronald Araujo, Sergi Roberto and Kounde as players who can play there, after the manager admitted the club was interested this summer in Chelsea's Cesar Azpilicueta.

When asked about Dest's role, Xavi struck a different tone.

Sergino Dest is reportedly not in Xavi's plans at Barcelona - and he's been linked with United

'He knows what the situation is,' he said according to ESPN.
