Xavi and Barca remain tied in marriage of convenience
BARCELONA: Xavi Hernandez and Barcelona's relationship seemed on the rocks in January but they have made the decision to stay together in a marriage of convenience. After the coach said he would walk away at the end of the season from a dream job that turned out to be cruel and unpleasant , three months later he changed his mind in a dramatic U-turn. In January I saw the best thing was for me to leave, but now I see it differently, Xavi said at a press conference Thursday. President Joan Laporta said the club needed stability and not drastic decision-making, despite failing to meet any of their objectives this season. The decision came hot on the heels of Barcelona's Clasico defeat by Real Madrid that leaves them 11 points behind the leaders in La Lig a, and Champions League elimination by Paris Saint-Germain. Xavi to remain Barcelona coach, club tells AFP Those losses virtually guarantee Barcelona will end the campaign without a trophy, a disappointment after their first La Liga triumph in four years last season. Barcelona did manage to compete with Europe's giants on an even keel in a way they have not in years past -- securing their best Champions League result on the road in a decade with a 3-2 win at PSG. They reached the quarter-finals for the first time since 2020 and knocked-out Serie A winners Napoli. While Xavi's list of excuses this season has run longer than the club's constrictive salary bill, Ronald Araujo's early red card against PSG in the second leg was a key factor in the second-leg 4-1 collapse. Lamine Yamal's hotly disputed ghost goal in the 3-2 Clasico defeat by Real Madrid is another crucial flashpoint which went against Barcelona. It's in our hands now, said Xavi, after years fearing the worst on the biggest nights against superior forces. However the club's improvement since Xavi's initial decision in January is not the chief reason they club are willing to keep him, instead only the easy explanation. Despite Laporta claiming they had not looked into alternative options, Barcelona could not see a suitable one. Reserve team coach Rafa Marquez was not particularly convincing, nor was the favourite to replace Xavi, Hansi Flick. Julian Nagelsmann is staying with Germany, Thomas Tuchel has struggled with Bayern Munich and would likely prove too expensive for Barcelona in any case. As would Jurgen Klopp, who wants a break after his time at Liverpool -- taking over at chaotic, cash-strapped Barcelona would be entirely contrary. Next season if things go awry Laporta has Marquez as an escape plan. To appoint the Mexican now would open the door to another potential new coach having to be found after that, along with the financial consequences. Regarding money, Xavi has behaved with great dignity, said Laporta. He has never been greedy. Xavi a shield? Xavi also offers Laporta an umbrella from the steady rain of criticism -- the only reliable deluge in drought-ridden Catalonia -- with the 44-year-old's glittering past as a Barcelona player making him an easy target. Barcelona can also hope keeping Xavi will still work out, with each year at the helm providing vital new experiences for a novice coach. Giving up on Xavi would also mean renouncing Barcelona's style of possession football to some extent, as the Catalan is the main proponent of it this side of Pep Guardiola -- even if that has not always translated on the pitch. For Xavi too, there is clear appeal in staying. Despite the waves of criticism he must surf, it really is his dream job and one he may never get the chance to do again. For years he spoke about his determination to coach the club he loves and it may be Barcelona or bust for him. While the club's financial problems restrict his transfer options, the explosion of teenagers Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi mean Barcelona have signed two world class players from the youth academy. They have been crucial in Barcelona's improvement and may have given Xavi the belief he can help the club compete for silverware again next season. Now Xavi can dream of leaving on a high, presenting a major trophy at the club's renovated Camp Nou stadium next summer.

Xavi to remain Barcelona coach, club tells AFP
BARCELONA, SPAIN: Xavi will remain as coach of Barcelona, the Spanish giants told AFP on Wednesday, despite having announced in January that he planned to quit at the end of the season due to the cruel and unpleasant nature of the job. Spanish media reported that the 44-year-old, who had signed a contract extension until 2025 last autumn, decided on his dramatic change of mind after a day of meetings with club president Joan Laporta and sporting director Deco. Xavi's decision comes just a week after Barcelona were knocked out of the Champions League in the quarter-finals by Paris Saint-Germain. On Sunday, the defending champions fell 11 points behind Real Madrid in La Liga's title race following a 3-2 Clasico defeat to their bitter rivals. Former Barcelona midfielder Xavi said he felt liberated when he made his decision to stand down. He had repeatedly said the job was his dream but admitted the pressure of the role eventually proved too much. You are made to feel every day that you are not good enough, he said after a shock 5-3 home loss to Villarreal. It happened to all the coaches: Pep (Guardiola) told me, it happened to (Ernesto) Valverde, I saw Luis Enrique suffer. He added: You often feel there is lack of respect, you feel that your work is not appreciated. It wears you down in terms of health, of mental health, your mood, your emotional state. I am a positive guy but the energy goes down, down, down, until the point at which you say: it makes no sense. It makes no sense to continue. Xavi to quit 'cruel, unpleasant' job as Barcelona coach at end of season Barcelona, who have struggled with financial issues in recent seasons, appointed Xavi as boss in November 2021 and he helped turn their fortunes around, lifting the league title last term. But this season they were also thrashed 4-1 by Real in the Spanish Super Cup and were dumped out of the Copa del Rey by Athletic Bilbao. The announcement liberated me on a personal level, he said in January. From June 30 I will not continue as Barca coach ... as a Barca fan, I think the club needs a change of dynamic. Since Xavi announced his intention to leave at the end of the season there had been a lack of experienced coaches linked with the job. Only former defender Rafael Marquez, who currently manages the Barcelona B team, had been regarded as a serious contender. Ex-Germany coach Hansi Flick and Brighton's Roberto De Zerbi were also linked. Despite Barcelona's indifferent season, there are signs of hope for the club's future well-being with the emergence of 16-year-old Lamine Yamal, Pau Cubarsi, 17, and 20-year-old Fermin Lopez.
