A number of clubs have been linked with the 21-year-old over the past twelve months, including Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Juventus, Manchester City, rivals Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
But Barca are widely seen as favourites to win the race to sign the £50million-rated Brazilian, who has hinted at a move to Camp Nou.
"Who wouldn't dream about playing alongside Messi, Xavi and [Andres] Iniesta? They're all great players," he told Esporte Espetacular.
"Yes, Barcelona [are the team that impress me the most], who has great players like Xavi, Iniesta, [Cesc] Fabregas and Dani Alves.
"I don't know if I'll ever reach the level of Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, but if I do, I'll be more than happy," he added.
"[Luis Felipe Scolari] is another great coach that I'll have the opportunity to work with. I've learned a lot with Mano Menezes, who first got me into Selecao, and I'll learn with Scolari now.
"Fans can expect lots of effort and dribbles. Brazil will do well, and it'll be great to play at home. I hope to do well in this World Cup."
