Manchester United\u2019s Struggles Continue as Xavi Hernandez Sets Conditions for Coaching Role<\/p>\n
Manchester United remains in turmoil, with no signs of improvement following Erik ten Hag\u2019s mid-season dismissal. The club took a gamble by appointing Portuguese coach R\u00faben Amorim, but results have not changed\u2014and may have even worsened. Currently sitting 14th in the Premier League, United risks missing out on European football next season.<\/p>\n
According to El Nacional, speculation is growing about a potential coaching change, with Xavi Hernandez emerging as a candidate. After leaving Barcelona nearly a year ago, Xavi has been linked to multiple clubs, including United. While he previously held discussions with the club, he has yet to decide on his next move.<\/p>\n
However, reports suggest Xavi finds a move to Old Trafford appealing and has resumed talks with Jim Ratcliffe. If appointed, he is expected to demand key signings\u2014starting with Frenkie de Jong. The Dutch midfielder was a vital player under Xavi at Barcelona, and the coach has consistently defended him against criticism.<\/p>\n
Another target on Xavi\u2019s list is Ronald Ara\u00fajo, a key figure in his Barcelona project, despite their relationship cooling recently. Still, Xavi sees him as crucial to strengthening United\u2019s struggling defense.<\/p>\n
With midfield and defensive issues already a concern for United, these potential signings could play a major role in shaping the club\u2019s future\u2014if Xavi takes the reins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
