Nah Xavi cant stand Laporta and he is speaking out as his time at club was going to be on agenda for these debates.

This is not some simple Xavi controlled by Font.

Xavi isnt helping himself with way spoke and the pity party.
Xavi wasn't going to be a part of the debates, unless he had opened his mouth. Even the official support he signed for Font 10 days ago was not enough.

Xavi exposed?

🗣️ President Laporta: "It was Jorge Messi who came to my house and told me that they were going to Miami to live a calm life with less pressure."

🗣️ Javier Tebas (La Liga president): "It was not true that La Liga had given the green light to sign Leo Messi."

🗣️ Jaume Roures (Mediapro CEO): "Xavi is not saying the truth. La Liga had not authorized nor given the green light to sign Messi. This is about the electoral campaign. He's going with Victor Font and does not want Laporta to win."

🗣️Leo Messi in 2023: "I wanted to take my own decision. This is why I did not sign for Barcelona. I heard that they had to sell players and or reduce salaries to sign me. I didn't want to be responsible for that."

🗣️ Xavi himself in 2023: "It has not been an easy decision for Messi. It was actually Jorge Messi who called the club and said Leo won’t come to the club."

From the reports Xavi wanted Zubimendi.. and wanted to sell Pedri to make it happen.

While wanting to renew Roberto and get in Gundogan.

Little fucker had lost the plot.

"He wanted to get rid of Raphinha and Lewa, they leaked some really ugly stuff about Pedri that painted him in a bad light (yeah, from the best in the world alongside Lamine).

He wanted to leave, then stay, and then he bailed on the squad (with which Flick has absolutely crushed it).

He talks about something with Messi that was never even settled.

Unacceptable"

I remember seeing the old rumors with Pedri.

Xavi clearly wanted a Busi successor. I think his idea was getting Zubi and using him as a DLP pivot.

I think it was obvious Xavi didn't see or totally misprofiled Pedri that in his eyes if needed he is expendable.

Good thing we didn't sell him. It was pretty obvious Pedri was much better when he had the ball a lot more and not being shoved so far forward.

The reports are he wanted Lewa gone but Pedri was on a list of players would sell for big offer as not convinced on his fitness.

From Pedris comments post Xavi it does seem like there was friction on his fitness and reports at time Pedris surroundings were not happy with way he was dealt with while coming back from injury.

Xavi also quite clearly didnt know how to get best from Pedri either.

I am aware of all that but considering club tried to get rid of Frenkie…bit weird to think could’ve been scenario where both Frenkie and Pedri would not be at Barca that season anymore.

No you are not that aware as not the same summer.

This is being said to be the list Xavi gave shortly before punted not the summer of 2022 and selling Frenkie was always said to be club led and barely lasted a few weeks.

Xavi loved Frenkie and Frenkie was Barcas best midfielder in title win season and 23/24 before fucked his injury. That ship had sailed.

I know Xavi loved Frenkie, but club tried to sell him off. Then if Xavi thought Pedri lacking fitness for Barca he would try to have him gone regardless of Frenkie.

But correct on Frenkie issue being a season prior.
