Real Sociedad midfielder Martín Zubimendi has admitted his admiration for Barcelona rival Sergio Busquets.

Many say he could replace Busquets at Camp Nou.

"Busquets has done a lot of damage to the rest of us midfielder and I am a long way from being like him, to be honest. He has done so much," he said.

The Basque added that he is not aware of the reports that place him at Camp Nou.

"I am focused on Real," he said. "It is good that teams great can say that, although I don't know if it's true, but I'm focused here and that's it".

Zubimendi has been surprised by Barça's summer, who they will face this weekend: "They didn't have a lot of money and they ended up signing a lot of players. They have built a great team."
