BREAKING NEWS: “I’ve seen all their Premier League and Europa games this season, and their performance has been terrible. The coach lacks a consistent starting XI, and it frustrates me to see so many talented players on the bench while he continues to field those who don’t contribute. With nine games played, they’re in 14th place. This is Manchester United, for goodness’ sake!” Xavi reportedly expressed his anger after another disappointing loss this weekend.

A recent post by Xavi Hernández’s wife has stirred excitement among Manchester United fans, following a photo showing the former Barcelona coach with his young son, who is notably wearing a Manchester United jersey. This seemingly casual image has ignited speculation that Xavi might soon take over managerial duties at Old Trafford. Currently 44 years old, Xavi is without a club after leaving Barcelona at the end of last season.

His availability has only heightened the rumors, particularly as Manchester United struggles through a rocky season under Erik ten Hag. As the team endures disappointing results, there are growing doubts about Ten Hag’s future, and reports suggest United may have reached out to Xavi as a potential replacement.

In the Instagram story posted on Sunday, Xavi sits beside his son, who is filling out a sticker book while sporting United’s famous red kit. This image quickly set social media alight, with fans speculating that Xavi might be hinting at an interest in the Manchester United job.

Ten Hag’s position has been under pressure for some time, and the situation only worsened after the team’s recent 2-1 defeat to West Ham. The loss, combined with other poor performances, has intensified calls for a managerial change.

Reports indicate that earlier this month, Manchester United’s leadership, including Sir Jim Ratcliffe, held an extensive seven-hour meeting during the international break to discuss the club’s challenges.

However, no immediate decisions regarding the manager were made. For fans, though, patience is wearing thin, and prominent figures like Jamie O’Hara, former Tottenham midfielder and now a Sky Sports pundit, have been vocal about the need for change.

Following United’s latest defeat, O’Hara expressed frustration, arguing that United’s current league position—14th after nine games—is unacceptable. According to O’Hara, he would have replaced Ten Hag after last season’s FA Cup final, stating that it could have allowed him to depart on a high note.

As uncertainty looms over Ten Hag’s future, the possibility of Xavi taking over has fueled debate and hope among fans. Whether Xavi’s son’s attire truly signals an impending managerial shift or is merely a coincidence remains to be seen. However, Manchester United’s struggles are undeniable, and change may be necessary if the club is to reclaim its former glory.
