Apparently the Spanish midfielder missed Wednesday's 1-1 draw with Thailand in Bangkok because of an ankle injury and not to avoid injury.

"Xabi is with us in Singapore, and will train with the rest of the squad," confirmed a club spokesman. "He was injured ahead of the Thailand game, people can say what they like about that.

"And there has been no deal agreed with anyone for his transfer to anyone.''
