Barcelona midfielder Xavi Hernandez believes that teammate Thiago Alcantara is destined for success at Camp Nou.
Thiago has been linked with a summer move to Manchester United after failing to establish himself in the Catalan club's midfield, but Xavi has insisted that the 22-year-old should remain patient.
The 33-year-old told a press conference: "I'd advise Thiago to stay patient because he's a player who is bound to be a success at Barca.
"I think he is an extraordinary player. Thiago is not just a player for the future, but he is someone who can make an impact right now as well."
The Spanish international made 29 appearances for Barcelona this season.
