The Daily Star newspaper reports this morning that Manchester United have made Barcelona playmaker Xavi their top transfer target in the January transfer window.
The player, who would cost at least £20 million, is a crucial part of the excellent Barcelona side and it seems very doubtful that Barcelona would be interested in any sort of deal.
Xavi was player of the tournament at Euro 2008 and was selected in the FIFPro world XI for 2007-08. He has sixty seven caps for Spain and is widely heralded as one of the worlds finest midfielders.
He would be a fantastic signing for Manchester United but I just don’t see this one happening.
