Visiting the Penya Barcelonista de Balaguer, the boss of the Catalan club confirmed the Spanish coach in his duties. “Xavi is a wonderful coach, he always sees the positive side. He goes through hard times like all culés, because he is a culé to the core, but he recovers immediately. He is always thinking about how to improve and how to do better. This is significant for a president and a board of directors. We have to support him. Make no mistake, we have a team under reconstruction.”

Towards a new fiasco in C1
Through the voice of their boss, the Blaugrana wanted to extinguish any speculation about the short-term future of the 42-year-old manager, appointed in November 2021 and under contract until June 2024. A way also for Joan Laporta to fully reassure the successor on the bench of Ronald Koeman, aware of having to lead his team to the heights under penalty of being pushed out. Barring a twist, Xavi will remain firmly in his post.
Before the 11th day of La Liga and the arrival of Athletic Bilbao on Sunday, FC Barcelona was in second place in the standings three behind Real Madrid. In the coup in the league despite a recent setback in the Clasico (1-3), in Santiago-Bernabeu, the partners of Ousmane Dembélé are on the other hand close to a new elimination from the group stage of the Champions League. Before the reception next Wednesday from Bayern Munich, FC Barcelona is in third place in group C, three units behind Inter Milan.
