Xavi Pascual's future is back in the spotlight of the European basketball market. According to journalist Óscar Herreros, the FC Barcelona head coach is Dubai's primary target to lead the team starting next season.
Pascual, currently coaching FC Barcelona, signed a contract last November that includes an exit clause—a key detail that would facilitate a potential move if Dubai's interest materializes into a formal offer.
The move would align with Dubai's ambitious roadmap, as the club seeks to establish itself as a competitive force in European basketball with an experienced figure on the sideline. In that sense, Pascual represents a profile of proven experience, elite basketball knowledge, and success in international competitions.
For now, no official negotiations have been confirmed, but the Catalan coach's name already appears as the top priority in the project's planning.
