The things which must happen for Xavi to replace Koeman

'Marca' says that, unlike other occasions, this time his signings is "possible", but for that to happen, certain things must be cleared up first.

Barca's start to the 2021-22 season has not been as expected. They were defeated 0-3 by Bayern Munich in the Champions League and they drew 1-1 with Granada in their last league match.

Those results have put Ronald Koeman in the firing line. His future as Barca coach is up in the air.

Xavi Hernandez is one of the people whose name has been on the list of possible replacements for the Dutchman. Despite the fact 'RAC1' rued out the possibility of him succeeding Koeman, 'Marca' reports that his signing is "possible."

That said, the former player would have to talk to the board to talk about certain issues before accepting the role.
