The future of Xavi Hernández will take longer than expected to be defined. Everything seemed to indicate that, with the meeting that he was going to have this Sunday with Joan Laporta, the doubts were going to be resolved, but the meeting ended up being postponed.

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The 'case Xavi' is not near to resolve . According to the last informations, it will be necessary to expect until the next week to define if it will follow to the control of the Barcelona bench by a season more (fulfilling his agreement) or will be destituido of immediate way. His future is in the air and the uncertainty reigns in a FC Barcelona that follows evaluating all the alternatives that are on the table.

Everything seemed to indicate that this Sunday would have the 'sentence' final on the future of the egarense. The directive and 'heavy weights' of the club 'reencontraron' in the Estai Olímpic Lluís Companys in the previous of the crash against the Ray Vallecano and, later, went to keep a meeting with Xavi to communicate him the decision, but of a moment to another cancelled the meeting.

'Summit' postponed in the Barça

Deco Abandoned soon the stadium and, with him, the majority of the cúpula. Yes they gathered , in brief, Joan Laporta and Xavi in the changing room culé, but went to greet and congratulate to the trainer by the result. As 'Jijantes', the maximum mandator did not find in good conditions (did not feel well, by a cold) and preferred to postpone the meeting until the next week, after the crash against the Seville in Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.

The uncertainty will keep a week more.

The rumours have not detained in the last four days, since it filtered that Laporta was meditando sack it before the visit to the Almería, and will not detain now The directive has by in front a quite complicated stage and will have to put all the letters on the table to avoid that the 'show' extend more than the account... Because, at the end of the day, the image of the club is the one who more is seeing prejudiced.
