Barcelona legend, Xavi Hernandez has lambasted the club’s board for their recent signings. The former midfielder claims that the Catalan side have been sleeping while Real Madrid are winning the Champions League 3 times in a row.
“Madrid have this winning gene and Barca have slept, for years, when it comes to signings. Those who make the signings do not know what they are doing, and you pay for that. It seems Barca win [La Liga] titles, but the others [Madrid] are winning the Champions League.” said Xavi.
The Spain international did not waste an opportunity to talk about Real Madrid again and indirectly said that they are just lucky to win the Champions League. “Real Madrid had everything go their way. Injuries like Neymar, Robben, Boateng, the referees, Liverpool’s most important player getting injured, mistakes from the Bayern and Liverpool goalkeepers. It is like a curse.” he said.
