Xavi's time at Barcelona
He led the club to a second-place finish that season, and in his first full season, the 2022/23 campaign, he steered the club to their first league title in three seasons.
Although the Blaugrana have enjoyed domestic success under Xavi, his European record leaves a lot to be desired.
He has been eliminated from the Champions League group stage twice as a Barcelona coach and has failed to win the subsequent Europa League on both occasions.
Xavi set to commit his future to Barca
His failure on the European stage has not seemed to fluster his bosses at the club, as according to a report by Marca, he has agreed on a renewal offer to extend his contract, previously set to expire next summer, until 2026.
The agreement is said to remain only formalities, with both parties on the same page in principle.
