đ¨ NEW: Reports from Spain suggest that former Barcelona boss Xavi HernĂĄndez is carefully studying the Premier League as he prepares for his next managerial challenge.
Sources close to the 44-year-old tactician reveal that he is âopen and eagerâ to test himself in England, with Manchester United seen as his preferred destination.
What is particularly striking is that Xavi is reportedly willing to join United immediately, even if the club fail to secure European football next season. This shows his strong belief in the prestige of Old Trafford and the potential of Unitedâs squad, despite their turbulent form in recent years.
Xavi has always admired the Premier League, often praising its intensity, atmosphere, and the tactical diversity of managers operating there. After his Barcelona spell, where he delivered La Liga and Supercopa de EspaĂąa titles, he is understood to want a fresh start in a different environment. Unitedâs project appeals to him because of its global stature, historic success, and the opportunity to rebuild a team around young talents such as Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho, and Rasmus Højlund.
The clubâs board, meanwhile, is under huge pressure after the sacking of RĂşben Amorim. United fans have been calling for a manager with a clear footballing philosophy and authority to restore discipline and identity at the club. Xavi, with his possession-based style and deep understanding of modern tactics, could be seen as a figure capable of delivering that.
Although negotiations have not yet been confirmed, reports suggest that Xaviâs openness to a project without Champions League football is a major boost for United. His willingness to embrace a long-term rebuild could match the boardâs desire for stability after years of managerial instability.
đ If this move materialises, it could be one of the most defining appointments in Unitedâs modern
history.
