Xavi Hernández was more than happy with his side's performance in their third game of preseason. "It was the best game of the tour. We've seen a great Barça," explained the coach after the 1-0 win over AC Milan courtesy of Ansu Fati's winner. "We did not play well against Arsenal, we improved against Real Madrid and today we saw a great Barça," he continued.
The absence of Franck Kessie was down to a "a knock he has had for the last three or four days" according to Xavi, who also had praise for Oriol Romeu. "He is a perfectionist, he has a good temperament and he performs in attack and defence. He's a great signing," said the coach.
Asked about the Ousmane Dembélé situation, he revealed: "Dembélé came to see me to tell me he wanted to leave. He has an offer from PSG that we cannot match."
