Gbenga Okunowo claims Xavi will do everything possible to return Barcelona to their "glory days" following his announcement as the Catalans’ new manager.
The Spaniard will now take charge of the Blaugrana following the sacking of Ronald Koeman whose 14-month reign at Camp Nou came to an end following Barca's 1-0 defeat against Rayo Vallecano.
During his playing days for the La Liga giants, the former Al Sadd boss enjoyed a trophy-laden career that included eight La Liga, four Champions League and six Spanish Super Cup diadems.
With his appointment, Barcelona players would look up to the club’s icon for inspiration as they hope to revive their stuttering 2021-22 campaign.
