Barcelona will reportedly attempt to convince Xavi to stay at the club beyond this season by trying to sign Manchester City forward Erling Haaland next year.
Xavi announced in January that he will be leaving this summer after a disappointing first half of the season that saw Barcelona lose ground to Real Madrid in the title race.
However, since that announcement, the team have experienced an upturn in results to move into second in LaLiga and the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and Barcelona are now keen for Xavi to change his mind, with vice-president Rafa Yuste recently admitting they are still thinking 'about a long-term project led by him'.
