Xavi has spoken out about the harsh sacking from Barcelona, he is not defending his return. You gave us back our faith, one of the stars reacts to sad farewell
It must feel like a roller coaster ride for Barcelona fans. At the beginning of the year, Xavi announced that he would leave the club after the season. In April, he reversed his decision, only to be sacked a month later. Now the club legend has spoken about his end, and the Blaugranas stars are reacting.
It must feel like a roller coaster ride for Barcelona fans. At the beginning of the year, Xavi announced that he would leave the club after the season.

Barcelona will say goodbye to a club legend after the season. Xavi Hernández has his last game as its coach ahead of him. The club made the announcement on Friday afternoon, upsetting its fans big time.
Not long ago, meanwhile, club president Joan Laporta enthusiastically celebrated that the former great midfielder had reconsidered his decision when he announced that he would continue at Barcelona. Hansi Flick will most likely lead the Blaugranas from the new season.
It wouldn’t be a surprise if Xavi felt wronged and angry at the management. However, the legend of the Catalan team is not complaining publicly. On the contrary. Before his last duel, he revealed in a press conference that he respects the situation as much as possible.
“I respect the president’s decision to sack me. He decides. I will always be a Barcelona fan, I will always support the club,” Xavi let himself be heard, whose words are quoted by Fabrizio Romano.
Xavi is not defending his return
“I’ve had difficult days here, but I’m doing well. I have a clear head and I would like to say that I am proud of the two and a half years I have spent here. If one day I would like to come back? Yes, why not? I would like to, it’s the club of my life,” says the Barcelona coach.
“We have been through a rollercoaster of emotions. I’m not closing the door, on the contrary,” added Xavi Hernández.
His end at the club is understandably regrettable for the players. After all, when he took over Barcelona, the club was in decline. Despite the financial crisis, he managed to instil a clear handwriting in the team, brought in several youngsters and won the title. He didn’t do badly at all.
“You came back to the club when we needed a new direction. You gave us back our faith. We won the title under your leadership. Thank you for the passion you put into every day. Now we say goodbye for the second time. But Barcelona will always be your club. It was an honour to be your teammate and to have you as a coach. I am grateful to have you as a friend,” Marc-André ter Stegen said on social media.
