Liverpool FC's Javier Mascherano would be welcome at Barcelona, despite increasing competition for places, says midfielder Sergi Busquets.
Barca have been closely linked with a move for Liverpool FC’s Mascherano as coach Pep Guardiola looks to add reinforcements to his all-conquering squad.
If the European champions do manage to persuade Liverpool FC to part with the Argentina captain then it will add further competition to an already impressive midfield contingent at the Nou Camp.
One of the players whose position could be most threatened by the arrival of Mascherano is the 20-year-old Busquets, but the Spain international is not looking at it like that.
Asked if he was worried by the possibility of Barca bringing in Mascherano, Busquets said: "No, the more players that come the better, and they will be welcomed.
"He is a magnificent player and hopefully he can be added.
"The most important thing is that the signings will add to the squad," said Busquets, who believes he has slightly different attributes to Mascherano anyway.
"He is also a defensive player, but perhaps he moves around a lot more conducting play and I maintain my position more and play the ball quicker."
