|
AXA FC Barcelona has announced that head coach Xavi Pascual has extended his contract for two more years, until the end of the 2009-10 season. Pascual replaced Dusko Ivanovic hours before the start of the Top 16 and helped the team to reach the Euroleague Quarterfinal Playoffs and the Spanish League finals. The announcement came on a press conference held to present Joan Creus as the club's new general manager Joan Creus, who replaced Zoran Savic. "We have reached an agreement with Xavi for two years. I have considered several talented coaches and I realized he is the most suitable one for this project due to its knowledge and technical capacities. His coaching profile matches what we were looking for", Creus said. "It is safe to say that the team played well in the final dates of the season. Players have shown that they can be in this team and we will take that into account."
