Fabregas Confirms Xavi Is Also Leaving Barcelona.



Dan Petrescu, coach of the Qatar Stars League outfit, told Digi Sport on Tuesday that  34-year-old Barcelona center midfielder Xavi  has signed a pre-contract agreement with the club.

The Spain midfielder  has  been linked with a move away from Camp Nou in recent times.

Xavi’s declining form was a symptom of Barca’s poor season, which saw them end the campaign without a major trophy for the first time since 2007-08. 

 Fabregas, who this month moved to Chelsea from Barcelona, told Marca: (Xavi) and (Carles) Puyol have decided to step aside.

 “(They want) to be closer to their families, away from so much demand.” Puyol ended his 17-year playing career with Barcelona when he retired last season.
