Alena believes Xavi is destined to be best coach in the world

There’s certainly still love between Carles Alena and Barcelona. The Getafe man spoke about his former club’s manager and their chances in La Liga this week.

He travels with Getafe to take on Real Madrid this weekend and wouldn’t be opposed to helping out his former teammates along the way.

“Playing at the [Santiago] Bernabeu is everything to me,” he said.

“Getafe want to win and if it also helps my former teammates and friends, let’s see if we can. Barcelona are playing at a spectacular level, for me they’re the team that’s in best shape in La Liga.
