Barcelona have three big months ahead of them as they continue to search for a new manager to replace Xavi Hernández and take over the first team next season. Several names have been linked with the job, but it doesn’t appear the Catalans are anywhere close to choosing their favorite candidate a month after Xavi’s announcement.
Because of the lack of concrete news and the non-stop rumors of potential new managers, there has been some speculation this past week that president Joan Laporta could end up asking Xavi to stay for one more season and give the club another full year to choose the ideal candidate.
