Although, Barcelona won the La Liga and Copa Del Rey, they crashed out of the Champions League in the quarter-finals to AS Roma.
Xavi, who won three Champions League trophies during his time at Barca, believes his former club is now "dormant".
“Madrid have a winning gene and Barca have fallen asleep,” he said.
“They have been dormant for years with signings and that takes its toll."
Mohamed Salah's Injury and Loris Karius nightmare made life easy for Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
And Xavi insisted the Madrid had Luck in the competition.
He added: “Real Madrid had everything in sight. Injured players like [Paris Saint-Germain star] Neymar, [Bayern Munich's Arjen] Robben, [Jerome] Boateng, the referees.
"The most important Liverpool player was injured, Bayern goalkeepers [Manuel Neuer injured and Sven Ulreich's semi-final error] and Liverpool.
"It seems like a witch, but the issue is that Barcelona have fallen asleep and it seems Barca are winning titles, but the others are winning the Champions League."
