Barcelona's head coach, Xavi, recently discussed the Catalan club's objectives for the remainder of the season, emphasizing the importance of securing a second-place finish.

According to Xavi, Barcelona's immediate goal is to clinch the second spot in the league standings. This position is crucial as it qualifies the team for the Super Cup and ensures a minimum requirement is met—participation in next season's Champions League. The path to achieving this involves defeating Valencia, especially as they hope to capitalize on Athletic Bilbao's potential slip-ups.

"I am optimistic, as is the president. We are looking forward to the summer and the opportunities it brings to strengthen our squad," Xavi expressed, revealing a hopeful outlook for the upcoming transfer window.

The team is highly motivated and eager to end the season on a high note. "I am excited and full of energy for the next year," Xavi added, reflecting his enthusiasm and readiness for the challenges ahead.

It's important to note that Barcelona currently holds the third position in the league, trailing Girona by just one point, but with a game in hand.

The crucial match between Barcelona and Valencia is scheduled for April 29, kicking off at 22:00 Kyiv time. This game represents a significant opportunity for Barcelona to advance their position and meet their strategic goals for the season.
