And in doing this, the Spaniard has rolled out 10 rules all the players must follow for Barcelona to return back to winning ways in all competitions.

Things fell apart at Barcelona under former manager Ronald Koeman who was unable to get good results after the departure of Lionel Messi who is also struggling at Paris Saint-Germain.

According to the report on Sportsbible and AS, Xavi wants to turn around Barcelona's dire form this season and he is ready to work with all the players.

What are the new rules Xavi rolled out?

1. Players must arrive 90 minutes before training start

2. Staff must arrive two hours before training starts

3. Players must eat at the club's training ground

4. Fines have returned

5. Fines will be doubled for repeat offences/offenders

6. Players must be home before midnight two days before a game

7. Players must give their all in training

8. Player's off-field activity will be monitored

9. 'Risky' activities are no longer permitted

10. A good image is essential

Under these 10 rules, players will be afforded fewer freedoms than they were under the previous manager Koeman at Barcelona.
