Xavi Pascual Leaves Barcelona to Coach in Dubai

Barcelona coach Xavi Pascual has officially left the club to join the Dubai basketball team. Citing his intense loyalty to Barcelona, known as being a "culé," Pascual stated he could not accept the lack of promised reinforcements and the salary offered.

The departure is marked by irony, as Pascual is leaving for Dubai, where the new coach is also a devoted Barcelona fan who has signed key player Toko Shengelia from the Catalan squad. catcross.org
