The “dream” comes true for Xavi
The former midfielder, who has literally won everything with the Blaugranas as a player, will initially have the heavy task of remaking Barça a respectable team before thinking of offering him a new golden age. With two immediate objectives: to move up the rankings in La Liga (9th) and to ensure qualification for the knockout stages of the Champions League in the “final” for 2nd place against Benfica.
Whatever happens, it is for Xavi “a dream” which comes true after a stint on the bench of Al Sadd, in Qatar, where he was able to launch his coaching career discreetly with more or less success. , since he also won his first titles on the bench. In Barcelona, he knows, we will have to raise the level of requirements a notch so as not to sink like the Koeman, Setien and company.
