Xavi wants a job in the Premier League, but the truth has emerged over his links to the vacant manager’s post at Manchester United.
It has been revealed that the former Barcelona midfielder, who is set to leave Camp Nou at the end of the season, has his sights on working in England in the next stage of his coaching career.
However, despite the growing noise around Old Trafford and suggestions that Xavi could be a candidate if United decide to make a change, there is no concrete connection at this stage between the Barcelona legend and the United role.
Xavi’s immediate focus remains on seeing out the current campaign with Barcelona, with his departure already confirmed, while his longer-term ambition is geared towards taking on a Premier League challenge rather than being tied to the speculation around United’s situation.
The update clarifies that, while Xavi is open to – and keen on – the idea of managing in England, any talk of him being lined up for Manchester United is not based on an established link, despite the vacancy debate continuing to surround the club.
