Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are looking for a new manager, and they have identified Xavi Hernandez as a target.
According to a report by Spansh outlet Fichajes, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are interested in Xavi Hernandez. The two Premier League heavyweights have started exploring their move for the former Barcelona boss.
The 45-year-old is currently unemployed, and it will be interesting to see whether either of the two clubs can bring him to the Premier League. He has previously managed a big club like Barcelona and helped them win the league title. There is no doubt that the Spaniard has the credentials to manage in the Premier League as well.
Manchester United have been quite disappointing this season, and Ruben Amorim was shown the door two weeks ago. Michael Carrick has been appointed as the interim manager until the end of the season. However, Manchester United are looking at long-term options, and Xavi could be an excellent option for them.
The opportunity to join Manchester United will be exciting for him as well. The Red Devils are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they have the resources to build a formidable team. They have invested heavily in quality players, but their managerial decisions have been poor. It will be interesting to see if they can make the right choice this time.
Xavi’s attacking style of play could be a good fit for Manchester United players. He has won the La Liga title in the past, and the players are likely to hold him in high regard. The Barcelona legend was a world-class player during his career, and he is well respected in the game.
Spurs eyeing Xavi as well
Meanwhile, Tottenham are looking at the Spanish manager as well. Thomas Frank has not lived up to expectations. Tottenham are mid-table right now, and they are likely to miss out on UEFA Champions League qualification next season. They are now looking to make changes, and it will be interesting to see if the Danish manager is sacked in the coming weeks.
The North London outfit are likely to be an attractive option for Xavi as well. They have quality players and the resources to further improve the team. Spurs have world-class infrastructure, and he could look to build a formidable project at the North London club.
