If you're a fan of growth shares like I am, then I have good news for you.

A couple of high-quality shares with bags of growth potential and major upside potential have recently been named as buys.

Here's why brokers are feeling bullish about them right now:

Corporate Travel Management Ltd (ASX: CTD)

Morgans is bullish on this corporate travel booker and has named it as an ASX growth share to buy.

The broker believes Corporate Travel Management is well-placed for growth over the medium term thanks to acquisitions, its lower cost base, and technology development. It has previously highlighted:

CTD should be a materially larger business post COVID given it has made two highly accretive acquisitions during the downturn. The company has also won a lot of new business, implemented structural cost-out opportunities and continued to develop its market-leading technology.

Morgans has an add rating and a $23.20 price target on its shares. This implies over 20% upside from current levels.

Xero Limited (ASX: XRO)

Another ASX growth share that has been named as a buy is Xero. It provides a platform for online accounting and business services to small businesses across the globe.

Goldman Sachs remains very positive on the company and believes it is well-placed to grow into its massive market opportunity over the long term. It commented:

We see Xero as very well-placed to take advantage of the digitisation of SMBs globally, driven by compelling efficiency benefits and regulatory tailwinds, with >100mn SMBs worldwide representing a >NZ$76bn TAM.

Goldman Sachs currently has a buy rating and a $141 price target on its shares. This suggests a potential upside of 40% for investors.
