The 44-year-old initially said declared in January he would leave at the end of the season but made a dramatic U-turn in April after the team&rsquo;s form improved. However Laporta was reportedly angry with Xavi&rsquo;s words earlier this week when the coach highlighted Barcelona&rsquo;s financial difficulties in contrast to the might of eternal rivals <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/football/article/champs-madrid-smash-alaves-50-23349436" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Real Madrid</a>.&nbsp;
&ldquo;The news doesn&rsquo;t interest me, [the club] conveys me calmness and confidence, for me absolutely nothing has changed,&rdquo; Xavi told a news conference.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;ll sit down with the president, if we have to talk about something we will, but in theory everything is as it was three weeks ago.&rdquo;&nbsp;
Barcelona can seal second place in La Liga if they beat Rayo Vallecano on Sunday in the penultimate league match.&nbsp;
