Xavi rumoured to be FC Barcelona’s new head coach:
Barcelona president Joan Laporta said he is in touch with the 41-year-old previous Barca midfielder following the firing of Ronald Koeman on Wednesday.
Koeman was excused after a 1-0 away loss by Rayo Vallecano.
Be that as it may, Al Sadd tweeted: “Xavi has a two-year contract and is completely centred around the group’s impending matches.”
Xavi is the top choice to supplant Koeman and Laporta said: “I have consistently said one day [Xavi] will be Barca’s lead trainer yet I don’t have a clue when.
“We have incredible references about Xavi at Al Sadd. Every one of our reports about Xavi is positive. We can jabber about Xavi, however, I can’t give you more subtleties. He is in every one of the papers, yet we likewise have different choices.”
Talking at a question and answer session on Friday, Laporta was found out if he stood by too long to even consider settling on a choice on Dutchman Koeman’s future.
“Likely, yes,” he said. “Thinking back it is not difficult to break down, we felt Koeman merited certainty to recuperate some harmed players and it was a way of rousing the supervisor.
“I searched for certain up-sides. Most likely we needed to settle on a previous choice, I accept the obligations of this choice.”
