After yet another defeat for FC Barcelona this season, Joan Laporta has decided to show the way out to Ronald Koeman. After ousting his Dutch coach, the Catalan president is looking for a new strong man to sit on the bench of Barça. And it seems that his choice falls on Xavi, former captain of FC Barcelona. In an interview with Movistar, Dani Alves felt that Xavi was the right coach for the Blaugrana team. “Barça must be coached by someone like Xavi” “I think Xavi will be a coach of Pep Guardiola's level. Barça must be coached by someone like him, a coach who has a very special way of seeing and reading football, ”said Dani Alves. It remains to be seen whether Joan Laporta will succeed in reaching full agreement to repatriate Xavi to FC Barcelona. Skip back to main navigation
