Font reveals when Xavi will join if he's elected, states Guardiola plan
"[If I win], on January 25, Xavi will begin to supervise the entire football project and once the season in Qatar is over in April he will join the club," Barcelona's presidential hopeful Victor Font revealed in an interview to Marca.
"Xavi’s dream is to coach. We want Xavi to be the person in charge of the football structure. That is, he will have enough power to make the most important decisions. And being clear that his dream is to be a coach, as soon as the club needs him in that position, he will be."
Earlier, Font promised that Xavi would join the Barca board as a general manager. The presidential hopeful also made it clear that Xavi could become Barca's head coach if the 2020-2021 season goes badly.
Font also shared his plan for Pep Guardiola's return: "Without a doubt. I want to create the conditions to attract and retain the greatest talent like Guardiola, who is the best coach in the world. When he leaves City, trying to get Guardiola back in another role will be a top priority."
It will take time to bring Pep back - his current contract with the Citizens expires in 2023.
