The former legendary midfielder of FC Barcelona admitted Tuesday that "my main goal was and still is to train" the Catalan club one day.
"I do not hide it, and I have always said it, my main goal, when it can be achieved, is Barcelona," Xavi said in an interview with the Spanish daily, Marca.
"This is my home, and (his training) will be a dream," added Xavi, who defended the colors of Barcelona from 1998 to 2015.
"When I have to come to Barcelona, be it for a short or long period, I will come."
"First of all, I have to respect Kiki Citin (the current Barcelona coach, who is under threat of dismissal), and I wish the team all the best."
Xavi, whose name appeared again as a candidate to receive the technical management of the Blaugrana after losing the League title this season in favor of the traditional rivals Real Madrid, "Barcelona sometimes plays very well, sometimes very well, and sometimes it does not play well. But I like the ideas of Citin, The current and with the teams he coached previously: controlling and providing an enjoyable gameplay. "
"I have excellent relations with Xavi and we talk about many topics, but next year we have a contract with Kiki Citin," Barcelona President Josep Maria Bartomeo said Sunday in an interview with the daily El Mundo Deportivo.
