Xavi admits returning to Barcelona is his long-term plan
The Spaniard has long been among the favorites to take the head coach role at Camp Nou, especially as the club’s 4-1 defeat to PSG this week has endangered Ronald Koeman’s position more than ever.
The
Al Sadd
boss has told
FIFA’s official website:
“Right now, I’m at Al Sadd and I’m doing well here. I’m at a big club in Asia, in Qatar. It’s the best team in Qatar.
“We’ll see what happens in the future. Everyone sees me as a Barcelona coach, and I really respect Barcelona and Koeman, the current head coach.
“I don’t want to hide the truth - of course I would like to be Barcelona’s head coach. I’ve said it many times.
“But I will always respect the presiding coach and the club. I wish them the best of course. I’ve been a Barcelona fan as long as I can remember.
“There’s an upcoming presidential election, so let’s see which candidate wins in roughly a month’s time.”
