Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez has said the club is not looking to sign a new left-back this summer.

There have been speculations that the LaLiga champions would be in the market for Jordi Alba’s replacement.

Alba’s contract with the club was terminated this week.

But Xavi, speaking to the media on Saturday, made it clear they were content with Balde and Marcos Alonso.

He said: “We won’t sign a new left back this summer to replace Alba; we have Balde and Marcos Alonso.

“We need Busquets replacement. It will depend on the Financial Fair Play situation. I want a smart, determined pivot who wins duels.”
