In front of this, the Barça shipped in the arduous task to find a new technical director that will lead the next sportive project for the season 2024-2025. Nevertheless, this task has not been the simplest.

As it aimed 'SPORT', from the Barcelona directive, headed by Joan Laporta, have expressed him informally to Xavi Hernández his wish to extend his stay in the Catalan club during another year more, so that it fulfil the lapse that still remains him in his agreement.
