Barcelona coach Xavi admits he's a fan of Girona midfielder Aleix Garcia.

Barca are said to be preparing a bid for the Aleix in the coming days.

Xavi said: "I really like him, but I have not spoken to Aleix or any other footballer.

"We depend on fair-play. I don't know if we can incorporate any other player. We will see how the economic situation is and what we can do.

"I'm in contact with the presi, with Deco ... nothing changes. At the moment there is nothing new."
