Spanish press sources revealed the scenes of the dialogue that took place between Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez and team defender Gerard Pique.

And according to what the Spanish newspaper “Sport” reported, Xavi met with Pique two weeks ago, and told him that he would not rely on him mainly next season.

Xavi defended his decision that Pique had physical problems that made him miss a month and a half of the crucial period last season, in addition to his unprofessional behavior off the field.

And the newspaper said, that the meeting was difficult because Xavi spoke clearly with Pique, but he did not question his footballing value at any time.

Xavi believes that Pique still has an undeniable quality, but he doubted his ability to hold out physically next season until its end.

Xavi believes that Pique is not focusing on football due to his multiple businesses, as well as his non-sporting differences.

Xavi sent a message to Pique saying that the best solution would be to leave the club with the greatest possible dignity, while giving up an important part of the money that Barcelona owes (as Carles Puyol did).

For his part, Pique rejected this proposal categorically, and wanted to refute all the coach’s arguments, stressing that he would train more than ever to restore his best version on a physical level.

And “Sport” reported, that the issue is now in the hands of Matteo Alemani, the sporting director, who must negotiate with all players who do not comply with Xavi’s plans.

Pique has a contract with Barcelona until June 2024, and the club owes him about 40 million euros.

Despite his positive numbers and few participations

Luc de Jong’s time at Barcelona is coming to an end, as the striker prepares to return to his parent club Sevilla soon. However, he is unlikely to stay in La Liga for much longer, with a move to Mexican club Toluca on the horizon, according to Jose Manuel Garcia and Fabrizio Romano.

Barcelona signed the towering striker on the summer day transfer deadline last year as a replacement for Antoine Griezmann, who left for Atletico Madrid.

Luc de Jong has arrived on a season-long loan deal with the option to make the transfer permanent. Upon arrival, the move was criticized and ridiculed by a large section of the fans, with Holland failing to make any kind of impact.

He was even overlooked by Xavi after the 42-year-old took over the club from Ronald Koeman. But a series of injuries and fitness problems forced the coach to rely on De Jong at the start of the second half of the season, and the striker took advantage of that.

Indeed, the Dutchman scored some vital goals for Barcelona and continued to play a vital role as a player in the team even after the arrival of players such as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Ferran Torres.

So much so that there have been some talks about the club even considering his permanent signature. However, that idea was scrapped, with the 31-year-old set to return to Seville.

But he is unlikely to stay long at the Andalusian club as a move to Mexico is a possibility. Indeed, according to the update, negotiations are already underway between Toluca and Seville, with the striker giving his consent to the transfer.

De Jong finished the 2021/22 season with seven goals and made 29 games for Barcelona. And if all goes as planned, he will be plying his trade in Mexico next season.

Barcelona is trying hard to strengthen its ranks in the next summer Mercato with special deals in all lines that contribute to returning the team to its previous era and strengthening it in the competition for titles again, as the club’s last title was the King’s Cup season 2020-2021.

But all these Catalan dreams collide with the financial crisis that the club is experiencing, which may prevent it from competing to include several distinguished deals that contribute to achieving the desired hope for the management and the fans, so looking for free or cheap deals will be the best solution to support the team.

And reports revealed that Xavi had received a new gift from an old friend in Barcelona, as veteran Chilean striker Alexis Sanchez offered himself to return to the Catalan club again, to support the team.

According to the Catalan newspaper, “Sport”, the 33-year-old Sanchez wants to return to Barcelona, and offered the club’s management his desire to play under the command of his old friend Xavi, and support him in the task of saving the Catalan team.

The newspaper pointed out that the Chilean player, who wore the Barca shirt during the period from 2011 to 2014, is good at playing in the center of the attack and will be a special deal that will not cost the Blaugrana a lot of money.

The Chilean international’s contract with his current club, Inter Milan, is scheduled to expire in the summer of 2023, but his continuation next season does not seem an option, and all possibilities indicate his departure from the “Nerazzurri”, which may be for a very low price, given his age and the survival of one season. in his contract.

Sanchez has a long professional career, as he started his career with the local Colo-Colo, before moving to the Italian Udinese and Barcelona, which he played with from 2011 until 2014, before moving to play in England with Arsenal and Manchester United, and then playing for Inter since 2019.

Sanchez collaborated with Xavi during his time in Barcelona before leaving to Arsenal, and together he achieved 5 championships: the European Super, the 2011 Club World Cup, the King’s Cup 2012, the Spanish League and the Spanish Super 2013.

It is noteworthy that Sanchez participated during the last season in 39 matches for Inter Milan, including 27 in the Italian League, during which he scored 9 goals and assisted 5.
