It was inevitable and now Barcelona are back in a condition where they are in the transition of a new coach with a financial situation that is still not possible. Hopefully Hansi Flick can last more than a season with Barcelona's current conditions.
Even I'm surprised by this news, Xavi is not a bad coach. Because I've read Barcelona are rethinking terminating Xavi's contract because of the improvement in Barcelona's play and final results. In addition, Xavi has changed his decision not to leave at the end of this season. But it turns out that Barcelona fired him, it seems that they do not want to be seen as dependent on Xavi.
Besides there is news that Barca president Joan Laporta does not like Xavi's comments. From local media goal.com it seems that Laporta does not like the economic situation of the club. If you look at Xavi's achievements he should not be long to relax, reportedly Chelsea is ready to get his services to replace Pochettino.
