Barcelona are actively trying to get manager Xavi Hernandez to change his mind about leaving the club at the end of the season.
Earlier this year, the club legend announced that he will be vacating his role due after a few disappointing results in LaLiga and the Copa del Rey.
The Catalans are still in the UEFA Champions League where they will face Paris Saint-Germain, while they currently trail league leaders Real Madrid by five points, having played a game more.

Barcelona vice-president Rafa Yuste has revealed they do want Xavi to change his decision but they will not pressurise him.
"I'm going to try to convince Xavi but it's a personal decision for him," Yuste said, as per Goal.
"There are still league games left, the Champions League... we have to let him enjoy it.
"I hope and wish that he continues because we are talking about a project, not a season or two."
Before Saturday's win over Las Palmas, Xavi insisted that he had not changed his mind about departing in June.
“I’m grateful to the club, the president, Deco. But nothing is changing about my decision now," he said, according to Mundo Deportivo.
"There are no substantial changes, but the key word for me is thanks. I’m really grateful.”
