Xavi will not take over the steering wheel of the "Barcelona" team in this season's stage, Catalonia's media reports.
Today, "Barcelona" club leaders were supposed to receive an answer from the 39-year-old strategist. Xavi was pleased with the attention from "Barca", but he decided to stay in Qatar.
"Mundo Deportivo" claims that Xavi wants to stay in his current team until the end of the season and only then apply for the position of "Barcelona" coach.
This morning, Eric Abidal and Oscar Grau were informed about this decision.
If the Catalan does not change his decision, there is a high probability that "Barcelona" will continue to work with Ernesto Valverde, who has a contract until the end of this season.
Latest sources in the Catalan media suggest that Ernesto Valverde will most likely still be dismissed, and the head coach's duties until the end of the season will be taken over by Xavi Garcia Pimienta, who manages "Barcelona B" team.
