Barcelona's Xavi Hernandez approves Guido Rodriguez transfer, still waiting to sign
Barcelona have struggled to find a player who could carry out the tasks of a defensive midfielder in line with the club's style of play since the departure of Sergio Busquets to Inter Miami alongside left-back Jordi Alba.
The arrival of Oriol Romeu from Girona did not bear fruit and Xavi Hernandez's option to change the position of centre-back Andreas Christensen has not been enough to prevent the 'Cules' from struggling in midfield this season.
Therefore, the Barcelona board has been working hard to find a defensive midfielder who fits the club's philosophy and whose transfer is affordable due to the delicate situation the Catalan club is going through.
