Javier Hernandez Creus

Short stature, mobility, agility, and most importantly, hard training and brilliant field play technique made the midfielder Xavi a legendary football player of our time. The Barcelona pupil gave the club, which became a family, the best years of his sports career. Now the Spaniard is preparing for the coach profession.

The footballer was born on January 25, 1980 in the Catalan Terrace, Spain. The boy's father, Joaquim Hernandez, was a former football player for autonomous teams. Then the man was connected with the game by coaching. In addition to Xavi, two older sons were growing up in the family. The parents wanted a girl, but she was born only on the fourth attempt, after the birth of Xavi.

The Spaniard recalls sharing a room with his sister. They stayed close with Ariadne for life. Since childhood, the girl loved to share secrets, experiences with her brother, and the children chatted until late at night. Xavi says that as a boy, he played video games with gusto. To do this, he had to sneak into the room of his older brothers, for which he sometimes received a thrashing.

However, football remained the real passion of the future stellar midfielder, like all family members. The elder sons attended a sports school, and my sister also played well with the boys. From the age of three, Xavi himself participated in street matches, came to training with his brothers. From the age of five, the boy began to officially attend a sports school, and at nine he transferred to the school of a local football club under the guidance of his father.

The athlete recalls that grandfather Jaume was an avid fan and a fan of the game in the family. He took his grandchildren to training, was proud of their success, rooted passionately for Barcelona and was ready to get into a fight with Real Madrid fans. Grandpa was the first to see the potential of his grandson and spoke out that Xavi was destined to become a star player.

The boy's mother, following the rest of the family, defended her son's future career, when the student's performance began to decline sharply due to the increase in the number of training sessions. The director who called the woman to the school said that Xavi had a different future. If after a year or two the training does not bring results, then the parents will think about the education of their offspring.

When Xavi was 10 years old, a selection was made for the Barcelona children's football academy. Parents were worried about their son's short stature. But the technique of working on the field, diligence in training did not go unsuccessfully.

The Barça coaches have already informed the father of the young athlete in advance about their readiness to accept the student. True, no one told the player about this. Joaquim did not want the pupil to relax in advance, so the boy laid out one hundred percent on the field.

By the way, the growth of the athlete remained small - 168 cm, which is not quite typical for a Spanish field player in the midfield position.

The biography of the Barcelona star began as part of the youth reserve team of the renowned football club. However, very soon, at the age of eighteen, the athlete made his debut in the first team. In 1998, the young man entered the field in the match for the Spanish Super Cup.

The 2004-2005 season brought the midfielder the status of the team's vice-captain. The next year turned out to be a failure for the footballer. After injuring his left knee ligaments in training, Xavi dropped out of the team for five months.

As a midfielder, the Barcelona star does not have an impressive record of goals scored. But that's not the player's job. The athlete's "calling card" is effective assists, high technical skills and a broad vision of the playing field. Thanks to brilliant passes, Xavi has repeatedly received the title of best player. In 2014, he was the first in the Champions League to make 100% accurate passes.

After giving decades of sports career to Barcelona, ​​in 2015 the midfielder signs a contract with Qatar's Al Sadda. At the time of the transition to a new team, the footballer became one of the highest paid in the world. The athlete's salary was € 10 million per year.

Xavi also distinguished himself in his international football career. In 2000, the athlete first appeared on the field as part of the Spanish national team in a friendly against the Netherlands. In total, he played 133 matches for the national team, scoring 13 goals against opponents. In 2014, Xavi announced the official end of his international career and his departure from the national team.

In 2013, the wedding ceremony of the midfielder and his beloved Nuria Kuniller took place. The girl is a journalist. Before the official marriage, the young couple met for a year and a half.

The lovers celebrated the event in the Spanish city of Blanes. The wedding photos show the faces of the footballer's star colleagues at the club (then Barcelona), accompanied by their wives and girlfriends. The couple spent their honeymoon in the Seychelles, hurrying to return from the trip to the beginning of the sports season.

Xavi is involved in charity work. It is noteworthy that the money donated to the newlyweds for the wedding was donated by the married couple to the foundation for the construction of an oncological clinic for children.

At the beginning of 2016, the beautiful wife gave birth to the football player's daughter Asia. Parents adore the baby, publish cute and funny photos with her on social networks, including the midfielder who shares them with subscribers on the Instagram page.

In addition to football, Xavi is fond of tennis and hockey, loves to ride a motorcycle. She continues to maintain a cordial relationship with her parents, helping to promote a small family-owned construction business.

The transfer of the “king of the pass” to the Qatari club is associated with the possibility of starting a coaching career. According to the terms of the contract, the midfielder will work as a mentor for young novice athletes. At the end of the contract with Al-Sadd, the legendary player plans to take the place of sports director of the Barcelona football school Vila Olimpica.

In April 2018, it became known that the Spaniard, together with sixteen other colleagues in La Liga, had begun training to obtain UEFA coaching licenses.

Together with the midfielder, the group's listener was the renowned Real Madrid forward Raul. Within a year after receiving licenses, former players will be able to lead any football club. The Spaniard does not hide that he dreams of returning to his native Barça as a mentor.
