Barcelona had a beautiful farewell to coach Xavi Hernandez as they won 2-1 against Sevilla. Xavi - a talented former midfielder with more than 700 appearances for Barcelona - replaced Ronald Koeman in 2021 and took the team from ninth to second in his first season in charge. But he also had to say goodbye to the club in tears.
Barcelona is a difficult club, partly because of its unfavorable financial situation and, above all La Liga's financial fair play rules. Whoever is about to become the new coach of Barcelona, I believe they will face many challenges. This job is not simple, and Hansi Flick must be very patient if he wants everything to go smoothly.
For me, he's not a bad coach, but he's not right material for Barcelona right now, so he had to go. Xavi shared his thoughts on the challenges his successor will face. Xavi's words will surely resonate with fans and future candidates. He warned that the new coach will face a tough job because of the club's high demands and difficult economic situation. Hansi Flick is set to take over at Camp Nou. He knows about Barca's current situation and his responsibilities very well. It will be interesting to see how he tackles those upcoming challenges of managing Barcelona and what changes he'll bring to the team.
