Barcelona lost 3-2 to Royal Antwerp in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night, raising even more questions about Xavi's long-term future at the club.
The Barca boss now faces mounting pressure in the hot seat, amidst consecutive defeats and a lack of vocal boardroom support.
The recent string of poor performances, highlighted by losses to Girona and Antwerp, has stirred concerns among the fanbase, with some believing the club legend has hit his ceiling with the club.
Barcelona's Xavi under pressure
With only two wins in their last five matches, the Blaugrana currently sit in fourth place in LaLiga, and a potential defeat against Valencia could exacerbate Xavi's precarious position.
The team's slim chances of defending the LaLiga crown hinge on Xavi's ability to inspire a turnaround, but he must do so quickly to avoid a sad end to a beautiful story.
