Barcelona Keep Xavi Hernandez, These Are The Conditions

JAKARTA - Barcelona remain confident in convincing coach Xavi Hernandez to stay. Xavi also opened the possibility of cancellation but he put forward the conditions that the club had to meet.

Barca clearly wants to keep Xavi while hoping the coach doesn't mind changing his mind. Moreover, the team has shown impressive performance since Xavi announced his departure.

Barca is almost unstoppable and on fire. They reached the Champions League quarter-finals to face Paris Saint-Germain. Currently, the Blaugrana set a proud record, namely 11 games without defeat.

The competition in the Spanish La Liga competition ended. Even though Barca, which has 67 points, are already eight points behind the leaders of the Real Madrid standings, Xavi has refused to give up.

This shows the mentality of the champions that Barca and Xavi do. He showed that during Barca, mathematically, they could hunt down Madrid points, they would not give up.

The club president Joan Laporta hopes to convince Xavi to stay. Laporta has conveyed to the public that Barca hopes Xavi will cancel its withdrawal. The same thing was said by the Director of Sports Barca, Deco.

However, the club will still wait until the end of the season to find out the coach's final decision.

Mundo Deportivo reported that Laportta believes that if the team excels in both La Liga and the Champions League, Xavi may change his mind about leaving the club.

Laporta has also planned to extend Xavi's contract until 2025, and maybe until 2026 if everything goes well.

They plan to make some new players this summer to strengthen the team.

The plan to buy players who are Xavi's requirements to survive. Yes, the latest news is that the 44-year-old coach is considering canceling leaving.

But he put forward quite a tough requirement. Xavi asked the club to buy players at the top level of the summer transfer window.

Xavi wants to get a defensive midfielder to strengthen his squad against next season's competition.

The choice is Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi or Joshua Kimmich, Bayern Munich midfielder.

Furthermore, he hopes to get the number 8 player or creative midfielder like Bernardo Silva who plays at Manchester City.

Silva is a player with high creativity who can play on the right and center.

However, Barca is indeed difficult to attract this Portugal national team player because he is the pillar of Man City. However, Xavi hopes to get a typical Silva player.
