Xavi Hernandez makes a surprising choice for his favourite Napoli player ahead of the Champions League clash with Barcelona.
In a recent press conference, Barcelona’s head coach, Xavi, caused a stir by revealing his admiration for Napoli’s Stanislav Lobotka ahead of their Champions League showdown.
The upcoming match between the two clubs is crucial for Barcelona, who are seeking redemption in Europe following a lacklustre domestic season.
During a press conference leading up to the Barcelona vs. Napoli Champions League clash, Xavi made a surprising revelation about his favourite player from the Italian side.
Contrary to expectations, Xavi did not choose star forwards Victor Osimhen or Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Instead, he singled out Stanislav Lobotka as the Napoli player he admires the most. Xavi’s choice has sparked intrigue and speculation among football fans and pundits alike, as he added that the Slovak had the quality to play for Barcelona.
“The one player I like most from Napoli? Lobotka. I think he has a good enough level to play for a club like Barça,” he said in the presser, per GFNS.
