Barcelona’s manager, Xavi Hernandez, has chosen to resign from his position as the club’s manager at the end of the current season.
This decision came after Barcelona’s 5-3 league loss at home to Villarreal.
“I want to announce that on June 30 I will no longer continue as the coach at Barca,” Xavi said.
“I think the situation needs to change course, and as a culer, I cannot allow the current situation.”
“This club needs a change of dynamic. Leaving Barça is the best decision possible for all parties involved”. “I’m the most responsible one, so the players will finally feel free now”.
“Everything will be calmer now, we can compete for the Champions League… at least with this decision you [the press] won’t kill me anymore”. “The club will improve with this decision”.
“You asked me many times that if I’d be the Sir Alex Ferguson of Barça… the truth is that it will NEVER happen here”. “You guys won’t allow it — being Barça coach is so difficult”.
“You see how they kill you, they criticize you, it affects you”. He said.
