Xavi 'wants' Premier League job amid Manchester United secret meeting and review

Xavi is reportedly keen on coaching in the Premier League after leaving his role as Barcelona boss at the end of the season.

The Spaniard recently stood down as manager of his boyhood club after three seasons at the helm, during which period he won one La Liga title and a Supercopa de Espana.
