Barcelona have decided to look for other options for their managerial role after turning their attention away from looking for Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta.
According to Spanish newspaper Sport.es the La Liga giants are looking at coaches Thomas Tuchel and Julian Nagelsmann as replacements for Xavi.
Despite his relationship with Barcelona and his many notable achievements at Arsenal the Emirates manager is no longer a top consideration for the position.
The 41-year-old has denied rumors linking him with a move to Barcelona emphasizing his commitment to Arsenal and his commitment to success in the Premier League.
