Xavi has revealed that his "ultimate objective is to coach Barcelona".
The 36-year-old made 767 appearances for the Catalans prior to his departure for Qatari side Al Sadd last summer.
The midfielder has confirmed that, once his playing days are over, he would like to try his hand at management, ideally ending up back the Camp Nou.
"I have no doubts. I want to stay in football, being close to the pitch. I would hate being stuck in an office," he told FourFourTwo.
"I want to do something properly or not at all. My ultimate objective is to coach Barcelona. I'm not hiding that. I want to work again for that house I consider a home."
During his stint with Barca, Xavi was part of a team that won 25 trophies.
