The Barça coach told Nico that he is not in his plans for the upcoming season, with Porto loan likely

According to Catalunya Radio, Xavi met with Nico Gonzalez on Tuesday to inform him of his intentions for next season and told him that he will not be relying on him much during the season if he stays with the club.

The Barça coach told Nico to look for another option for the season to continue his career because he hsd other plans for the team in which he would not play a leading role.

He invited him, according to these reports, to look for a way out because at his age what he needs is to play regularly and have playing time.

In principle, Nico plans to board the plane with the rest of his teammates to travel to the United States tour until his future is resolved.

The player, who spent last season on loan at Valencia, could now join Porto. His agent, Jorge Mendes, has a great relationship with the Portuguese club and it seems that they would be interested in having the Galician midfielder for next season.

Porto would also contemplate the option of buying him, although their fair play problems suggest a loan move. Nico will go on tour with Barça until this operation is finalised.
