Despite the efforts made by the club to retain him, recent reports from Spain indicate an uncertain future for Xavi, the outgoing manager of Barcelona, with the possibility of an early removal from his position arising following their exit from the Champions League earlier this week.
The situation may exacerbate should Barcelona suffer a defeat against Real Madrid in the upcoming weekend, as reported by Diario AS.
In the event of a loss, a scenario that could potentially clinch the LaLiga title for their rivals, Xavi might promptly be supplanted by Rafael Marquez, the current coach of Barcelona B.
It has been suggested that Barcelona’s financial constraints prevent them from hiring a high-profile replacement for Xavi at this time.
These developments transpire subsequent to President Joan Laporta expressing his desire to keep him as the manager of Barcelona in the long term.
