The world champion from 2010 will replace Jesualdo Ferreira on the coach stool. The Portuguese are an extremely experienced coach who started his coaching career when Xavi finished less than one year. This shows how much Ferreira saw and survived while living on the coaching bench.
He stayed in the Middle East since 2015 when he took advantage of Zamalek’s Egyptian offer. He survived in less than a year in Egypt but stayed in unemployment for only a week. He took over Al Sadd on November 28, 2015, and it was during these three and a half years that he led a team from Qatar.
A new stage in the life of Xavi will officially begin on July 14 when his charges begin pre-season grouping. It may turn out that this preparatory period will be very popular because it will be held in Catalonia or more precisely in Girona located near Barcelona, the most important city in Xavi’s life. The former Spanish representative has signed a coaching contract that will last for the next two seasons.
