Xavi is set to remain at Barcelona for another season, according to sources from the Associated Press, despite the coach originally intending to depart.

Xavi Hernández has reversed his decision to leave Barcelona at the end of the season, extending his contract until 2025. Following a meeting with club president Joan Laporta and sports director Deco, Xavi opted to stay, despite previously announcing his departure due to stress and tension. The decision comes after a recent loss to Real Madrid, dimming Barcelona's title hopes. Despite earlier intentions to leave, Xavi's change of heart aims to stabilize the team. Currently vying for second place in La Liga, Barcelona faces Valencia in their next match on Monday. The official announcement is expected soon, confirming Xavi's continued tenure with the club.
