Barcelona star rules out Premier League switch

05 February 2014 - 12:17

Barcelona's Spanish midfield sensation Xavi has ruled out a move to the Premier League as he has no intention of leaving the Catalan club.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • The 34-year-old, who has been linked with the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City during his illustrious career at Barcelona, insisted that he never thought of making a move from La Liga giants.



    "There was always talk United or Chelsea or City and Arsenal wanted to sign me, but never anything concrete," Xavi said. "I never thought of leaving like Cesc Fabregas, who went to Arsenal. I want to be here forever. If I am not at Barcelona, I will always be thinking of Barca. If I had played for City, United, Arsenal or Chelsea, I'd keep asking what is going on at Barca - my club."



    Xavi has notched up 82 goals in 704 appearances for Barca in all competitions until now.
