Barcelona Open Talks With Xavi To Make Sensational Return

Published

on

Barcelona have opened talks with former captain and Legend Xavi Hernandez over replacing under-pressure Ronald Koeman as manager.

President Joan Laporta has publicly backed Koeman, insisting he will keep his job, but reports revealed that the Camp Nou hierarchy are actively trying to convince Xavi to return to the club.

Reports suggested that an agreement with Xavi has already been reached, but club officials have confirmed this is not the case, although talks with the Al-Sadd boss have included discussions over salary and other financial terms.

Negotiations remain ongoing, with Laporta keen to make Xavi the man to replace Koeman, but the lack of agreement with the former midfielder, or any other candidate, has seen Laporta vow to stick with the Dutchman for now.

However, replacing Koeman remains high on Laporta’s list of priorities, but no immediate decision will be made until a permanent replacement can be found.

Laporta does not want another transitional coach and is keen to begin rebuilding Barcelona immediately, and as a result, he is prepared to stick by Koeman until the right option surfaces.
