"Xavi Hernández has been linked with quite a few jobs since leaving Barcelona a year and a half ago, but the coach continues to wait for the right opportunity to return to management. Manchester United, Ajax and Al Ittihad all flirted with Xavi for their job openings in the last 6-12 months, but the legendary midfielder rejected all approaches. And according to Diario SPORT, Spartak Moscow became the latest team to hear a 'no' from Xavi."
"The Russian club are embarking on an ambicious new project with heavy investment and a new sporting director who identified Xavi as his favorite target to give the project a clear footballing identity, but Xavi rejected the approach as he still feels like the right opportunity hasn't presented itself. Football changes very quickly, though, so Xavi will continue to wait until the right offer comes along."
Xavi Hernández left Barcelona a year and a half ago and has declined several managerial approaches while awaiting the right opportunity. Manchester United, Ajax and Al Ittihad made offers in the last 6–12 months that Xavi rejected. Spartak Moscow also approached him as part of an ambitious, heavily funded project with a new sporting director who favored Xavi, but he turned the approach down. Xavi is seeking a top job at a major club with stable ownership and a long-term vision and will continue to wait until an offer meets those criteria.
