Xavi believes Mohamed Salah is the key to his Nou Camp rebuild, and Barcelona are reportedly set to launch a serious effort to wrestle the Egyptian away from Liverpool.
Salah is in the form of his life and so far has replicated his incredible 2017/18 season, with a run of 15 goals in 15 games stoking talk that he's the best on the planet right now.
Barcelona have appointed Xavi to replace Ronald Koeman and take on the monumental task of rescuing the club from sliding into mediocrity, and he knows Salah's arrival would be a major boost.
