Xavi Hernandez Sacked!

Starting this blog with a sack letter 😒. Okay, this is not intentional but anyways that is the trending news at the moment.

FC Barcelona has released a statement this morning stating that the first team head coach Xavi Hernandez will not continue in his role again following a decision reached this morning with Xavi in attendance.

He has managed the side for the past three years with his biggest accomplishment during the period, the Spanish La Liga. Which they won last season. Barcelona has however not lived to expectations during the second half of the season with a leaking backline. Conceding a considerable number of goals. Most of the wins they had recently has always seen them come from behind to manage a win.


The coach's immediate response was felt after appointment with the fans giving him all the support as a former club legend. A Culer though and through. Hansi Flick is strongly tipped as the next successor. Fingers crossed
