Ahead of Bayer's Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid, Xabi was asked by Spanish reporters about the Real rumours.
He said, "Goodbye or Real Madrid? I can't say anything, we're in the middle of a season and all clubs have big goals.
"Atlético have them, Madrid have them too, and I'm thinking about achieving them. The game is very important for both teams and I'm focused on that.
"I haven't prepared (answers), it doesn't bother me, nor does it surprise me. I'm only thinking about Atlético, that's why I've prepared and I have enough to do."
