Xavi has reacted to Benzemas injury ahead of El Classico clash; Was a nice one though.

Benzema will be missing the El Classico clash as a result of an injury but this has not stopped the Barcelona coach to heap praises on him calling him a world class player.

He will be hoping to come back against Chelsea in their Champions league first leg in Spain.

Speaking in a pre match conference Xavi told reporters;

“one of the best nines in the world” and has said that his absence is “an important loss” ahead of the La Liga contest in the Spanish capital.

“Benzema is one of the best nines in the world, it’s an important loss, but it doesn’t change anything in our strategy. I suppose it might change something for them,”
