Firstly, Barcelona must stand for a strong end to the season - both in terms of play and results.
Xavi also does not want to be the initiator of staying - instead club management must make an attempt to convince the coach.
In addition to this, Xavi also wants certain guarantees before the summer window. However, it is not clear exactly what this will be.
Although Xavi, at the moment, looks set to leave Barcelona this summer, he is on a contract that expires in the summer of 2025, with an option for another year.
