The president of FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta, indicated that he would have already fired his coach if his name was not Xavi.
Coming out of FC Barcelona’s defeat against Villarreal (3-5), last Saturday in La Liga, Xavi Hernandez surprised everyone by announcing his departure at the end of the season. It must be said that the Catalan coach was no longer really in the odor of sanctity at the Camp Nou, where he did not have the results expected by his management. Besides, if he had not been a legend of the club culé, Xavi would have already left, confided Joan Laporta.
“If it wasn’t Xavi, I would have fired him already”thus released the boss of the Blaugrana during an interview given to RAC 1, and added: “I’m not going to rule out Xavi, because he doesn’t deserve it. He deserves to be trusted. »
“A coach with a certain track record will come”
Joan Laporta then spoke about Xavi’s succession. “I haven’t spoken to any coaches. There are principles of sports policy to which the new coach will have to adapt, he assured. There are principles that cannot be renounced because they brought us glory in the past and we are not going to renounce them. (…) A coach with a certain track record will come, unless we have to make a more imaginative decision. »
