Xavi minimizes the risks of exclusion from Barcelona in the Champions League


The team is close to winning the Spanish championship

After two consecutive draws in the Spanish league, Xavi is focused on the duel against Atlético de Madrid and tries to rediscover the way to victory with the barcelona. In the press conference, the coach minimized the risks of a hypothetical exclusion of the Catalan club from the next Champions League after a conversation with Joan Laporta, the culé agent.




– I talk to him a lot. He told me everything is fine and nothing to worry about. We are just focused on our work. I’m cool.

During the week, Laporta traveled to Slovenia to speak with Aleksander Ceferin, president of UEFA. There is speculation that Barcelona may be barred from participating in the Champions League due to alleged favors received from arbitration in relation to the ‘Caso Negreira’, although the Catalan representative denies the allegations.

Barcelona’s presence in the Champions League should be crucial if the club continues to seek the return of Lionel Messi, who is seen playing at a high level next season, according to the Catalan press. Xavi declined to comment on rumors of the Argentine’s return, although officials are moving behind the scenes.
