The situation with the FC Barcelona management team has now been resolved, with Xavi Hernandez remaining in post for a further 12 months.
Attention now turns to the situation of the players. Sergi Roberto, whose contract expires at the end of the season, has been linked with a departure this summer. In recent weeks, it seems more likely that Roberto will stay, with FC Barcelona ready to begin contract negotiations with their captain. Xavi Hernandez in any case wants him to sign for an additional season, as indicated by MD.
“I want him to renew his contract, but it’s up to him to decide. He knows my position. He can help us a lot. I hope he renews his contract.” Xavi spoke thus during his pre-match press conference, before the reception of Valencia on Monday at the Estadi Olimpic. The 44-year-old is expecting a tough game and has refuted claims that Barcelona’s season is over following defeats to Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
Roberto must stay
“Our goal is to finish second and qualify for the Super Cup. Valencia are a very good opponent, who had an extraordinary season in La Liga. They are very fast in attack, with good transitions and counter-attacks.
“We want to finish the season with good feelings and with the enthusiasm and strength necessary to prepare for the next season. »
