Once again, tension at Barcelona could be cut with a knife, with uncertainty over Xavi Hernandez's future abating for the third time in five months. There have been some hints that it could impact Barcelona's transfer plans.
Naturally, the new manager could have different opinions from Xavi moving forward, but Matteo Moretto told Fabrizio Romano's daily briefing that it is not true that the current coach's exit will signal which players will follow him. However, one player whose future could change depending on whether Xavi leaves his position is Vitor Roque, who has been limited to just 338 minutes since joining the club in January.

Roque's agent, Andre Cory, publicly announced that either Xavi would start playing for him more, or he would leave the club, rejecting the idea of ​​a loan deal to gain more experience in Europe. He is due to meet sporting director Deco soon, but a different coach could be more open to giving Roque more playing time next summer.
