Xavi Hernandez sets conditions for continuing as Barcelona manager
Xavi Hernandez’s future at Barcelona has caused significant speculation, with the club’s board, under chairman Joan Laporta, keen to persuade the former midfielder to extend his stay as manager.
Initially resolute about leaving at the end of the season to promote a change in team dynamics, Xavi’s drive looks to have waned in light of recent wins against Napoli and Atletico Madrid. Laporta is getting ready to meet with Xavi after the Real Madrid match, in order to convince him to stay.
While Xavi had been firm in his choice, SPORT now shows a possible rethink, given to certain conditions. The 44-year-old wants more say in sporting decisions now made by Deco.
Moreover, he demands assurances of sufficient funds for summer transfers, particularly targeting a top-quality pivot and a standout winger.
Xavi recognizes the peril of stagnation with the current squad and insists on bolstering it for the upcoming season. If Barcelona fails to meet these conditions, Xavi may reconsider his stance on staying on as manager.
The negotiations ahead promise to be pivotal in determining the future trajectory of both Xavi and Barcelona.
