Barcelona manager Xavi Hernandez has named Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr as one of the players Barcelona fear most, alongside Madrid legend Karim Benzema and Manchester United star Marcus Rashford.

Vinicius has definitely evolved over the years, and is now seen as one of the biggest name in the sport, and no longer that selfish teenager who still had a lot to work on.

Before his move to Saudi Arabia, Karim Benzema was easily the best striker in the league, and always hurt Barcelona.

In an interview with Mundo Deportivo, Xavi said: “With Rashford we struggled a lot. But also Vinicius, Benzema.”
