Xavi left Barcelona last May after two and a half seasons at the head of the club during which he won the Liga and the Spanish Super Cup. The former FC Barcelona midfielder, who has had a brilliant player career, has since moved away from the game but it is now impatient to return to the management of a club and wishes to add more trophies to its rich collection.
He entrusted to France Football: “I have nothing established in my future, I have an open mind. Why not train another Liga team? I am open to proposals. I am looking for an exciting project and I have the ambition to win titles. This is my goal. I like to see teams that play football well and that treat the ball well. Coaches like Pep Guardiola, Arne Slot in Liverpool, (Vincent) Kompany in Bayern … But I also like to watch championships like the Qatar, Saudi Arabia or Portugal Championship. I want my players to have fun, have an attractive game for their fans and finally win trophies. I want to win the Champions League, the Euro, the World Cup. »»

Xavi has already been linked to Manchester United and Juventus and its status in the game means that it may not miss offers this summer. The 45-year-old coach spent two years at the head of Al-Sadd, before returning to Barcelona, and built an exciting team that won seven trophies.
The fans will have to wait to see where Xavi will then go, but in the meantime, he should probably encourage his dear FC Barcelona. The Catalans are currently at the top of the Liga and in good position to qualify for the quarterfinals of the Champions League after winning a 1-0 victory against Benfica in the first leg of the round of 16.
