Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed that the club's board has complete faith in Xavi's managerial ability.
The Catalans are two points ahead of arch-rivals Real Madrid at the top of La Liga as the league takes a break for the World Cup, however they were knocked out of the Champions League group stages after finishing behind Bayern Munich and Inter Milan.
In an exclusive interview with Spanish outlet SPORT to discuss the first three months of the season, Laporta insisted that the manager's position has never been in question.
"Not at any point in time. We have complete confidence in Xavi as a coach. And I can assure you that we are very proud of the coach we have," he told the outlet.
"We always set out with maximum objectives and we would have liked to continue in the Champions League, but circumstances have made it impossible for us to do so. It was a hard blow. But I insist, the objective is the League and we hope that we continue on the right path."
The 42-year-old has taken charge of 57 matches for the Camp Nou outfit, winning 34, drawing 11 and losing 12.
