Legendary midfielder Xavi Hernández is in no rush to sit inside the Camp Nou dugout. Xavi, who will retire from football next Monday, admitted in an interview with TV3 that "now isn't the time" to take the Barça job.

He also spoke about Barça's current season. "I believe Barça need to go back to dominating matches. If not, it's impossible to win the Champions League. That's what history shows us. Barcelona have won the Champions League when it's won the league and when it's dominated matches. And right now, I don't think that happens as mucn."
