Barcelona relaxed over Xavi’s future, contract renewal in place – report

While Barcelona are working hard to land their desired targets before the end of the month, there have been a few changes in the club’s management lately.

Deco was officially appointed as the sporting director while Mateu Alemany’s exit at the end of August was also confirmed

There have been speculations over the future of Xavi Hernandez as well, given his contract expires in 2024, even though the Spaniard has done an excellent job of building a solid foundation.

Rafa Marquez was recently suggested as a potential replacement for Xavi, in the event he leaves the club in the near future.

Barcelona calm about Xavi’s future

In the midst of all these speculations, Barcelona remain calm about the future of Xavi Hernandez, reports El Chiringuito.

In the show, Dario Montero suggests recent rumours about Xavi are overblown, as there is ‘absolute calm’ in the Barcelona camp over his future at the club.

In fact, Barça are ready with a renewal offer and Xavi only needs to pen the deal, in order to prolong his stay at Camp Nou.

Xavi, who was appointed as the Barça coach at the end of 2021, has a contract at Camp Nou until 2024.

The Catalans, therefore, are keen on handing him a contract extension that will seal his future beyond the end of the season.

As mentioned earlier, Xavi has played a key role in building a solid foundation in the Barcelona squad while propelling the development of exciting young talents such as Gavi, Pedri, and Alejandro Balde.

The Spaniard also played a role in convincing stars such as Ilkay Gundogan, Robert Lewandowski, and Raphinha to join the club, despite receiving better offers from elsewhere.

Xavi, therefore, remains a central figure in Barcelona’s project and is likely to renew his contract soon, despite recent speculations suggesting that the coach is asking for a lucrative contract in Catalonia.
