According to Spanish newspapers such as Sport and Mundo Deportivo, it is officially confirmed that Xavi Hernández will continue as Barcelona coach next season.
This is a complete turnaround from when he announced on 27 January that he would leave the Catalan club. After meetings with sporting director Deco and president Joan Laporta, an agreement should have been reached. Xavi, who had previously hinted that he would only stay if certain conditions were met, has now accepted the club’s terms.
– President Joan Laporta will make an official statement in the club’s media channels on Thursday to confirm that Xavi will remain as coach, probably until the end of the contract that expires in 2025, the newspapers write.
Xavi took over as Barcelona coach in November 2021.
