While Xavi has recently announced his departure from FC Barcelona at the end of the season, FC Barcelona would have made Luis Enrique its priority to replace him.
“On June 30, I will no longer be Barça coach. I think the situation was not tenable. The club needs a change of dynamic. We are playing with too much tension and I think that as Culé the best thing to do is to leave. » To everyone’s surprise, Xavi Hernandez announced his departure at the end of the season from FC Barcelona, after the Blaugrana’s new defeat at home against Villarreal (3-5), Saturday in La Liga.
Therefore, a question arises: who will succeed Xavi on the Barça bench? According to daily information Sport, the Barcelona locker room would like to see Luis Enrique arrive next season. An idea that would also please the club’s leaders, even if a potential arrival is judged as “unlikely” by the Catalan media. It must be said that the former Spain coach is fully invested in his mission in Paris, where he is under contract until 2025.
