Xavi will no longer leave Barcelona at the end of the season, following the Spanish coach’s meeting with club president Laporta.

Xavi, 44, announced in January that he would walk away from the post at the end of the season after a string of bad results, saying that the job had also taken its toll on him mentally.

However, following a meeting with president Joan Laporta on Wednesday, the former Spain international has decided to fulfil his contractual commitment with the Catalan club.

Xavi was appointed as Barça coach in 2021, leading them to their first league title in four years last season and signing a contract extension until 2025 with an option for an additional year last September.
