Barcelona can never seem to do things the easy way and it appears the club’s desire to bring in Xavi as coach isn’t quite as straightforward as it seemed when Al Sadd announced on Friday morning they had agreed to let Xavi go home to the Camp Nou.
The Qatari side released a statement on social media which claimed Barca had paid Xavi’s release clause of €5 million but it seems that may not be the case after all.
The Catalan giants reportedly don’t want to play the clause at all and are pretty hacked off by Al Sadd’s statement, according to Mundo Deportivo.
