Following the resignation of coach Ronald Koeman on 28 October, Barcelona FC are set to announce his replacement shortly.
The favourite to take the job is hometown hero Javier Hernandez, known to supporters as ‘Xavi’, who looks set to return after a six year break in Qatar.

Xavi played midfield for the club between 1998 and 2015, winning four Champions League titles and 8 Spanish titles.
Barcelona are currently sitting 9th in La Liga, with just 15 points after 10 rounds.
