you can try to reintall higher version on xampp , that would be much easier if package upgrade is not an option,here .
also i found some packages about replacing mysql with MariaDB the Mysql sibling, here.
I am using Ubuntu so i think manual package upgrade should work but if not try to upgrade th xampp higher version to be safe.
update this is a link to a question about update mysql under linux, Here. actually i found couple of links about update mysql under xampp but on windows system so i think it is irrelevant to the topic.

i checked the highest version of xampp but it contains the same version of MariaDB ! – Salah El-Shennawy Feb 01 '18 at 16:29

why do not you try to update the mysql package alone ? is that a hustle in Manjaro? – Mohammed Omer Feb 01 '18 at 18:18

that's what i wanna do but it's under xampp package so i think it's a bit difficult – Salah El-Shennawy Feb 01 '18 at 18:26

no need thanks brother, i know how much it sucks on Linux system when you fill lost in an issue with no support, try another more popular linux repo than manjaro so you can find more help and more recent updates. – Mohammed Omer Feb 05 '18 at 00:02
