Barcelona to replace Xavi before end of season

The future of outgoing Barcelona manager Xavi is uncertain, as reports from Spain suggest that he may be removed from his position before the end of the season.

Despite the club's efforts to keep him, following Tuesday's exit from the Champions League, the 44-year-old is now said to be at risk of losing his job.

The situation could become worse if Barcelona loses to Real Madrid this weekend, according to Diario AS.

If they concede defeat, which would likely make their rivals LaLiga champions, Xavi could be immediately replaced by Barcelona B coach Rafael Marquez.

It's said that Barcelona cannot afford a high-profile manager due to their current financial situation.

This is coming after President Joan Laporta mentioned his intentions to retain Xavi for the foreseeable future.
