Barcelona coach Xavi has refused to be drawn on links with Manchester City winger Ferran Torres.
Reports in Spain have stated that Barca have enquired about signing the La Roja star.
Barca vice-president Rafa Yuste confirmed as such during the week, stating: "Ferran is a great player, like others. We are working with discretion to seek the best for the club.
"We simply have friends at City, there is a very good relationship and Reverter has paid a courtesy visit.
However, Xavi was not prepared to address the speculation when speaking his side's 2-1 win over Villarreal on Sunday.
He told reporters: "It's not the right time to talk about signings. Not right after the game, which will give us a great boost of morale."
