Barcelona are considering a surprise candidate as Xavi's replacement

Barcelona will get a new head coach in the summer. Xavi will step down from his position in charge of the Blaugrana team, but who will be his successor remains to be seen.

So, the search for a new head coach at Camp Nou is still underway, but according to Mundo Deportivo, the possibility that Xavi will remain in the team is still present. We previously reported on the conditions under which this could happen. But Barcelona are also preparing options in case of his departure.

The publication confirmed the candidacy of Hans-Dieter Flick, who is believed to be the closest among all German options, but two personalities could also surprise. The most acceptable, but at the same time the most difficult move is to bring back Luis Enrique from PSG, which the specialist himself does not want to leave yet.

And the option that is not one of the priorities, but it is still being considered, is the coach of Barcelona's reserve team, Rafa Marquez. Playing against him is the fact that he is not so friendly with the media, as well as his recent scandal with bookmaker adverts on social networks.
