There is never a complete week of peace in Barcelona. Already at the end of the season, with Xavi’s continuity guaranteed and second place in LaLiga practically achieved (which ensures the place in the next Champions League) it seemed that there were going to be a few weeks of tranquility in Barcelona.
But not. Xavi’s recent statements about the financial situation and the permanence of Victor Roque in the squad caused strong discomfort in the leadership. “We are not in the same situations as the clubs that have another financial fair play,” the coach had said. “I think that the culé must understand that the situation is very difficult, especially on an economic level. The economic situation has nothing to do with what it was 25 years ago, when a coach arrived and said: ‘I love this one, this one and “The Barcelona fan has to understand it and we are going to adjust to that. That doesn’t mean that we don’t try to compete, but that is the reality.”
Asked about the possible annoyance after his statements, Xavi had said: “We are planning the season with Deco and I see it as an opportunity to continue in the best club in the world. I have every hope and ambition to win titles.I just said that the economic situation is not the best and we are working to reverse it and have the opportunity to strengthen ourselves next season.There is always noise in the environment. “Deco and the president are the most important people in this project.”
Peace in Barcelona? Never.
