Pic: Barcelona unveil special tribute jerseys to bid farewell to Xavi

Barcelona are preparing ready for life after Xavi.

The Barca legend Xavi is calling time on his storied career with the La Liga giants to head to ply his trade in Qatar next season.

However, the Catalans aren't going to let the club legend go without bidding farewell. They are marking his final league game with the club with a special jersey paying tribute to his years of service.

The words "6racies Xavi" will be emblazoned beside the crest. "Gracies" is the Catalan for "thank you," while the 6 instead of the letter G is of course in elation to the Camp Nou stalwart's squad number.
