Xavi was offered to coach a top Premier League club. What decision did he make?

Following his departure from Barcelona, legendary former midfielder Xavi had the opportunity to immediately take a head coach position at a top club.

According to AS, Xavi received an offer from Manchester United to replace Erik ten Hag. However, Xavi plans to take the next year off.

Nevertheless, Xavi intends to return to coaching in the summer of 2025, prioritizing options in the Premier League. He has completely ruled out managing any other Spanish club besides Barcelona.

It is worth noting that Barcelona appointed German coach Hansi Flick to replace Xavi. Joan Laporta was angered by Xavi's comments before the match against Almería, where he stated that financial difficulties would prevent him from competing for trophies.

Xavi managed Barcelona from October 2021. Under his leadership, Barcelona won La Liga in the 2022/23 season and finished second last season.
