World Cup winning midfielder Xavi admitted that he misses life as a Barcelona player, having spent a year away from Spain in the Qatar Stars League.
Xavi who turned out more than 500 times for Barcelona was one of the most decorated players in the club's history with 25 titles, including eight La Liga and four UEFA Champions League crowns.
He joined Qatari club Al Sadd in May last year but still holds fond memories of his time with the Spanish giants.
"I miss the dressing room of FC Barcelona, the jokes, the circle and the level of football," the 36-year-old told Movistar+.
"Barcelona is the best club in the world and the only ones who are close to them are Bayern [Munich]."
With a three-year contract at Al Sadd, Xavi revealed his plans to go into coaching, but insisted he is still enjoying his time on the pitch and wants to play on for as long as he can.
"Coaching is something you have to feel, and I am starting to feel it," he added.
"And I like to be on the pitch, on the grass. But I am still a player.
"Everyone progresses at their own time, and I want to be a footballer for at least two more years, for as long as my body holds up."
