Barcelona Players Unite: Team Bonding Amidst Turmoil
Amidst the delicate institutional and sporting moment that Barcelona is currently experiencing, speculations around the club and Xavi Hernandez’s team have multiplied. In an effort to close ranks, the Azulgrana squad organized a brotherhood lunch at Robert Lewandowski’s home on Monday after the morning training session.
As reported by ‘Jijantes’ mid-morning, Barcelona players aim to strengthen the group’s bond through a meal, following Xavi Hernandez’s announcement that he will leave the club at the end of the current season. The players, who learned of the Terrassa-born coach’s decision on Sunday, were unaware of Xavi’s plans to step down. In the meeting, several players appeared visibly affected, although the coach insisted that his decision is final.
After Monday’s morning training session, the team captains spearheaded a meal without the coaching staff, involving only the players, similar to an event that took place approximately two months ago at a well-known establishment in Barcelona. The squad aims for unity, and they view spending more time together off the pitch as a positive step towards that goal.
