Chavi confirmed on Sunday that he still wants to return to Barcelona as head coach, he said in a Spanish media interview. The past star, who is currently coaching the Al-Sadr team in Qatar, explained why he refused the mid-season offer, signaling the partners he wants alongside him: Carles Puyol and Jordi Cruyff.

"I want to go back to Barca, I am very excited," said Chavey, "but I made it clear to them that I was looking to start a project from the beginning, where decision-making is mine," he explained why he had not taken up the offer that came in the middle of the current season when Ernesto and Alverda were fired.

"I would like to work with people I have confidence in, who have loyalty to me. There can be no toxic people in the locker room. ", Chubby said about how important it would be to surround himself with the people he trusts in the Catalan club.

"I am a team player, I do not want to decide alone. Here in Al-Sad I make the decisions with the team, even though mine has the last word," he stressed.
