With the appointment of Xavi Hernández as the new coach, FC Barcelona has seen the return of one of its idols home. However, the Egarense would not be the only one to return to the Camp Nou this season.

And it is that according to information from the Brazilian portal UOL, another mythical Barça player who is close to dressing as a Barça player again is none other than Dani Alves, the veteran defender with the most titles in football history (43). The Bahiense and the Catalan club would have a meeting next week to finalize the operation for the 2022 winter transfer market.

A month ago, Dani Alves, who has been a free player since August this year after terminating his contract with Sao Paulo, offered to return to Barcelona and help the club out of the crisis. However, the Brazilian's words did not make much noise in the Camp Nou offices.

The arrival of Xavi Hernández to the bench would have given a radical turn to the situation, since the new manager of Barcelona would agree with the return of his former teammate. With 38 years over, the Brazilian would be, especially, a benchmark for the club's youngest players.

President Laporta's opinion would go along the same lines as Xavi's. The Brazilian would bring experience in the dressing room and in terms of money, his emoluments would not affect the financial situation of the club. The next few days would be key to define his return to Can Barça after five seasons.
