Today, Saturday, Xavi Hernandez appeared in the preparatory press conference for the Barcelona-Real Sociedad match, which will be held tomorrow at Anoeta Stadium, in the framework of the matches of the second round of the Spanish Premier League season 2022/2023.
The coach talked about many topics, such as Dest’s future, Aubameyang’s position on leaving, and the possibility of Conde scoring before the match against Sociedad, as well as answering a question about Real Madrid’s recent decision in the market.
Barcelona coach, Xavi Hernandez, spoke when asked about Casemiro’s sudden departure to Manchester United and explained that it was an unexpected transfer due to the quality of the player and also because of the timing at this stage of the market.
Xavi said: “They make decisions and I don’t know what happened or the circumstances, but there were situations that could have arisen that made them decide to sell him. There is no doubt that it will be a very important loss for Real Madrid.”
Xavi noted, “Casimiro was a player like a decade ago in Madrid. He did a lot and with him they won many titles. They signed other players and then the decision was made to sell him. I can’t and shouldn’t say anything else because we already have enough at our club.”
Despite everything, Xavi reiterated that “for Real Madrid he was a player who performed very well. Football has this kind of situation that arises and that’s it.”
