Xavi is supposed to leave Barcelona at the end of the season, but it is not impossible that the champion will choose to make a shock even earlier. In Spain it is reported that the management has given the coach an ultimatum: a loss to Napoli in the first of two matches in the round of 16 of the Champions League, nine days from now, will most likely result in his immediate dismissal.
If Xavi loses and is fired, the one who will step into his shoes is Rafa Marquez, the coach of Barcelona B.
