Barcelona is running out of time to find a new coach to replace Xavi Hernandez to take over the first team next season. A number of names have been contacted, but it seems that the Catalan team has not yet chosen anyone suitable.

More than a month ago, Xavi announced his departure from Camp Nou. Notably, last week there was some speculation that president Joan Laporta might ask Xavi to stay for another season, thereby giving Barcelona more time to appoint a new coach.

President Laporta personally admitted that he wants Xavi to continue playing the role of Barcelona captain next season. He affirmed: “I really, really, really want Xavi to change his decision and stay as Barca coach.

I won't put pressure on Xavi. That depends on him. Xavi himself is aware of my wish for him to stay here. We will see the final decision at the end of the season.\"

Most recently, Mundo Deportivo pointed out why Laporta wants to keep Xavi. First, Laporta believes that Xavi is the best person to work with the club's young players.

Xavi is willing to trust young players, with Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsi regularly starting. This coach is ready to give debut opportunities to a series of emerging stars.

Laporta also believes that Xavi has handled the situation of veterans in the squad well and improved the performances of players like Raphinha and Ferran Torres.

The Barcelona president's plan is said to keep Xavi until 2025. Laporta then hoped to bring in Erling Haaland from Manchester City to strengthen.
