Xavi said that real power at Barcelona is in Echevarría's hands

Xavi Hernandez, one of the famous names in the history of Barcelona football club, spoke very harshly about the situation inside the club in his recent statements. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
He emphasized that although the club is officially under the president Joan Laporta, in reality all decisive decisions are in the hands of another powerful person. Xavi said that he returned to Barcelona on Laporta's personal invitation, but later admitted that the president himself could not fully trust him.
According to him, the process of leaving the head coach position was not conducted transparently and openly. The real reasons were not explained, and the decision was made only with official statements.
In Xavi's opinion, Alejandro Echevarria, who is Laporta's former son-in-law and close advisor, played a decisive role in this process. According to the expert, Echevarria, beyond his official position, controls all important decisions of the club and has more power than the president.
Xavi said that he was sidelined by this person and that this relationship based on friendship deeply hurt his heart. He had previously emphasized through the media that the environment around the club management tried to spread negative opinions against the players.
Xavi's frank words once again proved how deep and complicated the political struggles inside the Barcelona club are. How the club management and the public will respond to these statements and the future position of the president now carry great importance.
