Barcelona has sacked manager Xavi, with former Bayern Munich boss Hansi Flick set to replace him. Xavi, who had been under contract until 2025, will manage his final game for Barcelona on Sunday against Sevilla in their last La Liga match of the season.
The decision to dismiss Xavi was communicated during a meeting with club president Joan Laporta and sporting director Deco, exactly one month after it was initially announced he would remain with the club. Despite being persuaded by Laporta to stay in April, Xavi’s recent comments about Barcelona’s financial struggles reportedly angered Laporta, leading to his dismissal.
