Ruben Neves ‘not an option’ for Xavi at Barcelona - report

Ruben Neves is one of a host of midfielders who have been linked with a possible move to Barcelona in the summer transfer window.

The Portugal international has been tipped to leave Wolves before the start of the 2022-23 campaign and is thought to be keen on a transfer to the Camp Nou.

However, the 25-year-old is “not an option” for Xavi who has never even spoken with the midfielder, according to Mundo Deportivo.

Neves’s agent Gerard Romero reportedly offered the midfielder to Barcelona last week in a meeting with president Joan Laporta but just isn’t in Xavi’s thinking.
