“We’re Working on the Future”: FC Barcelona Coach Xavi Has an Interesting Response to His Meeting With Erling Haaland

Football is a strange sport with lots of ups and downs for every single team, and no one knows that better than the fans of FC Barcelona. Mere days after dropping down to the Europa League, the club is now being extensively linked with a move for Borussia Dortmund star, Erling Haaland.

The season has been very confusing for the club and its fans. It started in a horrible fashion when the club was unable to keep their captain Lionel Messi due to La Liga regulations. Things only got worse from there as they had to fire their manager, Ronald Koeman, after a terrible start to the season.

Later, Barca appointed club legend, Xavi Hernandez, to manage the club, and even that move seemed like backfiring after they got knocked out of the UCL group stages. However, a few months later, the mood around the club seems to have shifted entirely.

FC Barcelona manager Xavi doesn’t dismiss Erling Haaland rumors

Dortmund star, Erling Haaland, has been linked with a move to FC Barcelona for a while now and his agent Mino Raiola has been in contact with the club. When Xavi was asked about the move, his answer left a lot to desire.

“I can’t give details. All I can say is that we’re working on the future,” he said.

This will surely excite all fans of the club as signing a superstar like Haaland, who is still only 21, seems like a steal. The Norwegian star has unbelievable numbers wherever he has played, and will surely improve FC Barcelona for years to come.

Barca’s season and their future

Barca is still in the Europa League, and the club is nowhere close to competing for the La Liga title. Moreover, they were also knocked out of the Copa Del Rey, leaving the Europa League as the only realistic option for them to win a trophy this season.

However, fans are very happy at the club as the team is playing beautiful football under Xavi. Barca is on a good run right now and has made several smart investments in the January transfer window. It’ll be interesting to see what the future holds for the club and for Haaland in particular.
