Barcelona coach Xavi praised matchwinner Luuk de Jong after victory at Real Mallorca.
De Jong stepped up with over 15 first-team players missing to head in the only goal of the game as Barça climbed to fifth in the table.
The Dutchman hit the post and then the bar with a spectacular bicycle kick before finally opening the scoring.
"Luuk's an exemplary professional," Xavi said. "There's talk about him leaving, but he works hard and sacrifices himself for the team. He's an amazing professional. I am happy with him.
"Of course I consider that he could stay, he was useful today. We will see in the future, everything is just a hypothesis for now."
