Who will be the coach of FC Barcelona next season? Until now, we only had one certainty: the Camp Nou sidelines would not be occupied by Xavi when La Liga resumes in August 2024. But we may be witnessing a big turnaround in the situation , to the extent that Joan Laporta and Deco try to convince the old midfielder to stay.
The two strong men of the Blaugrana club believe that he remains the best profile, in particular because he works well in rather precarious financial conditions, and because he trusts the young people of La Masia. Little by little, the person concerned might even be changing their mind, and it’s 50/50. So much so that, according to SportBarça made a big decision.
Two final candidates
The club’s staff has therefore decided to stop its search for a new coach. Management will no longer probe or study new files until further notice. There are only two credible candidates now: Xavi, then Rafa Marquez, the coach of team B. The first is the priority, and the Blaugranas absolutely want him to stay.
In the event that he finally decides to leave, as initially planned, it is the former Mexican international who will take over. The options studied all over Europe have not convinced, and are not considered better than Xavi or Marquez, and the few attractive names like Luis Enrique are not realistic avenues currently. The ball is in Xavi’s court.
