The Catalan newspaper El Nacional claimed that Argentine star Lionel Messi asked Xavi Hernandez to move and coach a club after his departure from Barcelona at the end of the current season.
Xavi Hebernandez announced last January that he would leave Barcelona at the end of the current season after a series of disappointing results and performances that began with the loss of the Spanish Super Cup to Real Madrid, through the exit from the King’s Cup against Athletic Bilbao, until the heavy defeat against Villarreal 5-3 and the expansion. The difference with Real Madrid in La Liga.
But since Xavi announced his decision to leave, Barcelona’s results have witnessed a major boom, as the team did not suffer any defeat and was able to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, in addition to seizing second place in La Liga, 8 points behind Real Madrid.
For these reasons, Joan Laporta and the sporting director, Deco, began to think about Xavi remaining and dissuading him from the decision to leave, but the Catalan coach repeatedly repeats that his decision is final and that he will not remain in Barcelona after the end of the season.
For his part, local American newspapers said that Lionel Messi asked Xavi to coach Inter Miami and even made him an offer to succeed Argentine coach Tata Martino, who was destined for dismissal after he failed to exploit the presence of Messi, Suarez, Busquets and Jordi Alba.
Last week, Inter Miami suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat against Red Bull New York, which prompted David Beckham to search for a new coach and the choice fell on Xavi, who can start a small project away from the momentum of European football.
On the other hand, Inter Miami is also looking for more signings of European players. Most impressed is Modric, who appears to be a foot and a half away from leaving Real Madrid, and the Croatian also does not appear interested in going to the Saudi League.
Another name on the table is that of Sergi Roberto, who depending on who the new Barcelona coach is could also put an end to his time in European football.
