Barca has paid the release clause for Xavi, who has been coaching in Qatar since 2019 and now returns to the club where he had such great success as a player, according to the Qatari club.
In a statement, Al Sadd chief executive Turki Al-Ali said;
The Al Sadd administration has agreed on Xavi’s move to Barcelona after the payment of the release clause stipulated in the contract.
We’ve agreed on cooperation with Barcelona in the future. Xavi is an important part of Al-Sadd’s history and we wish him success.
After that, Al Sadd revealed on Friday that a deal had been reached between both the parties, Barcelona are expected to announce Xavi Hernandez’s spectacular return to the club as coach rather than a player.
On Wednesday, Barcelona’s vice-president Rafa Yuste and director of football Mateu Alemany traveled to Doha for negotiations.
Earlier on Wednesday 3rd November, Turki Al-Ali stated that Al Sadd were determined to keeping Xavi, and they look to have kept their ground in the negotiations, with Barca being required to pay Xavi’s release clause, which is apparently set at five million euros ($5.8 million).
Xavi informed us a few days ago of his desire to go to Barcelona at this particular time, because of the critical stage his hometown club is going through, and we understand this and decided not to stand in his way.
Turki Al-Ali added in his statement on Friday.
