Xavi Hernandez is a flying high manager in La Liga after resurrecting FC Barcelona who have been in the dark for quite some time.
Xavi began his stint as Barca coach in November after the sacking of Ronald Koeman.

He has revealed that he would like to have Lionel Messi back in the team after the Argentine left the Spanish giants for Paris Saint Germain at the start of the season.
“I think Messi is the best in history and the history of the club,” Xavi said.

“The doors will be open and as long as I’m a coach, it’s as if he can come every day if he wants.”
“As a club, we owe him a great tribute. He has a contract with PSG and I can’t do much more,” Xavi pointed out.

But he then suggested that Messi can come every day to “watch training or talk to the coach” as “that’s how it has to be for what he has given us.”
“It’s priceless,” Xavi concluded.
Messi hasn’t reached his level in France and could be anxious about his future with PSG also considering that he was booed when they were knocked out of the UEFA Champions League by Real Madrid last week.
FC Barcelona will meet Real Madrid today, 19 March in the La Liga match at Santiago Bernabeu with Kick-Off at 22:00.
