Al-Sadd Qatar's coach, Xavi Hernández , has commented that Barça cannot aspire to win under the "historical luck" that other clubs have had, such as Real Madrid , to try to conquer the Champions League , and has reiterated that his dream is to train the Blaugrana club in the future, even if they are "bigger words".

"In 'Champions' it is more difficult (to see Barça favorite). Barça have won them when they have been much superior to their rivals. Barça cannot play that historic luck that other clubs have had ," he commented in a talk with the 'youtuber' DjMaRiiO on his channel.

Xavi explained that, among those "other clubs", he refers to Real Madrid. " Yes, Madrid, yes . Other clubs have had it too. Barcelona were lucky at Stamford Bridge, with Iniesta's goal with ten players and almost without shooting on goal. That is luck," he acknowledged.

"I mean that you do not have a good season in LaLiga, that you are fourth, fifth or sixth, and then you win the 'Champions'. Barça has not gone through that, Madrid does and I call that having a little luck Barça has to be very dominating, very sure of itself. History says that he wins when he has been much better than the opponent, "he explained.

On the other hand, asked about the option to train Barça in the near future, he reiterated that it is an option and that it would be his " dream ". "I do not know why people see me as a Barça coach, but I am proud and I really like it. Now that I have proven myself as a coach, I see myself as capable and it is an illusion, a dream to return to Barcelona," he said.

"I consider Barça my home, it is my life . I am in an apprenticeship, I am learning a lot as a coach here in Qatar, at Al-Sadd. I would be very excited, but coaching Barça are bigger words, you have to see it clearly. It is a whole process and I hope that one day it can come, "he reiterated.
