The bazas of Xavi to replace to Koeman in the bench of the Barça

Although the FC Barcelona showed an important revival with the arrival of Ronald Koeman to the technical direction after a difficult season in which the Barcelona fell deleted by 2-8 in the Champions and were near to lose to Messi, the confidence in him has weakened after the tropiezos that prevented him win LaLiga.

Thus, the name of Xavi Hernández has gone back to sound with strength in the last hours to substitute to the Dutch. The ex captain is an old known of the institution after his 17 seasons dressing the T-shirt blaugrana. Time afterwards, initiated his career like trainer to the control of the To the Sadd, of Catar.

Previously, already it had been called to head to the Catalan entity: in 2020 it sustained conversations with Eric Abidal and Oscar Grau, those who presented him a proposal to assume the control of the first team like replacement of Ernesto Valverde. However, it declined the offer.

Xavi, wide connoisseur of the game of the Barça

Perhaps his greater reason to be the elected was precisely his experience with the team, especially during the step of Pep Guardiola by the bench. Besides, it has the support of the directive that chairs Joan Laporta, as well as of the fans of the club, that already asks his services.

His arrival apuntalaría the project of Laporta, the one who wishes that the Barça revive his best years, for which has trusted names already known. Nevertheless, the president also has manifested his confidence in Ronald Koeman, the one who also dressed the Barcelona T-shirt and has avoided greater evils in the current season.
