Ronald Koeman finished in FC Barcelona! The favorite is Xavi Hernández – ŠPORT.sk

A clear favorite for the vacancy is former captain of the Catalan big club Xavi Hernández. Renowned football transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano informs that Barcelona has been negotiating with the coach of the Qatari SC Al Sadd for weeks and will continue during Thursday. Xavi is interested in the position.

If Barcelona does not reach an agreement with the incumbent Qatar champion or coach, Belgian coach Roberto Martínez should be second on the list. The team will be temporarily led by reserve coach Sergi Barjuán if necessary.

Koeman will say goodbye to the players on Thursday. He has been coaching since August last year, leading the team to the Copa del Rey. As the helmsman of Barcelona, ​​he reached a balance of 40-11-16. He averaged 1.96 points per game, the worst since Radomir Antič’s short anabasis in 2003.
