Xavi’s wife drops major hint over Man Utd job amid Erik ten Hag sacking

Xavi’s wife has sent social media into a frenzy after posting a picture of her husband and son with the latter wearing a Manchester United home kit.

The former Barcelona boss has been strongly linked to the manager’s job at United, who officially announced the sacking of Erik ten Hag on Monday.

The Red Devils lost to West Ham on Sunday and sit 14th in the Premier League table after their opening nine fixtures in a disastrous start to the 2024-25 season.

There had been massive speculation over Ten Hag’s future – and United’s hierarchy finally decided to act this week – with attentions now turning to who may come in.

Xavi is thought to be a serious option – and just one day before Ten Hag’s sacking was confirmed – his wife Nuria Cunillera uploaded a photo on her Instagram story of the legendary ex-midfielder sat with their son.
Xavi’s son is seen playing with football stickers while wearing a United home shirt, which has led fans to believe that his dad could soon be coming in as manager.

United have already held talks with Barcelona icon Xavi about replacing Ten Hag, according to reports.
