Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has expressed his support for Xavi Hernandez‘s decision to remain as head coach of Barcelona for the upcoming season.
During a pre-match press conference ahead of Real Madrid’s clash with Real Sociedad, Ancelotti was asked about Xavi’s decision to stay at Barcelona. Ancelotti, who has a long history of managing top clubs, including AC Milan, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain, offered his perspective on the situation.
“It’s a good decision,” Ancelotti said of Xavi’s choice. “He has done a good job at Barcelona and knows the club well.”
Ancelotti went on to praise Xavi’s potential as a manager, highlighting his recent success in leading Barcelona to a La Liga title despite his relatively young age and inexperience as a head coach.
“He is a young coach who has a lot to learn, but he is also someone who has already achieved a lot,” Ancelotti said. “I think he can continue to be successful at Barcelona.”
Xavi’s decision to stay at Barcelona has been met with mixed reactions from fans and pundits alike. Some believe that he is the right person to lead the club through its current rebuilding phase, while others question his ability to compete with the likes of Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Only time will tell whether Xavi’s decision to stay at Barcelona will prove to be the right one. However, there is no doubt that he has the backing of one of the most respected managers in the world in Carlo Ancelotti.
