Barcelona coach Xavi discusses Roque, Roberto futures

Barcelona coach Xavi has hinted Vitor Roque could be sent out on-loan next season.

The January signing has struggled for minutes under Xavi.

Ahead of tonight's clash with Valencia, Xavi said: "We haven't decided anything yet, there are six games left. We will sit down with Deco, the president.

"We will decide at the end of the season. It's not easy to come from another league, it's not easy to make differences at Bara. You need more minutes, confidence and at the end of the season, we'll decide."

He also said of skipper Sergi Roberto's situation, "I want him to renew, to stay. It depends on him. The club knows my position with Sergi. He can help us, he has already done so since we arrived as a staff. I hope he can stay."
