FC Barcelona has the task of finding a new coach for the 2024/2025 season and it will be a process that will take time. Joan Laporta will not make the decision from one day to the next

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona will live a delicate process to choose to his new trainer. Xavi Hernández has announced that will leave the bench when it finish the present season and from the dispatches of the club have begun to work to give form to the leaf of route that desenvocará in the 'signing' of a new technician. Although there are a lot of names on the table and the rumours have not detained , the 'operation' hardly goes beginning.

The decision on who will be the successor of Xavi will not take immediately. In the Barça still prevails the 'shock' by the announcement of the egarense, does less than 72 hours, and still there is a lot of way by in front. The priority in the club is that they are the bases seated so that the team can compete in what it subtracts of season and try to not to remain in 'zero', a stage that to day of today seems very complicated.

The Barça will not take a decision immediately

The research of a trainer goes to carry time, as it has informed Fabrizio Romano in the last hours. Contrary to the rumours that have produced recently, with the names of Roberto of Zerbi, Jürgen Klopp, Hansi Flick, Imanol Bailiff, Thomas Tuchel, among others, the Barça is not contacting to anybody in this moment and will live a process of analysis, debate and, later, will begin to touch doors. It is necessary to be conscious that fichar to a new trainer is not a simple task and that it will be necessary to pay, probably, a clause of rescission if has a valid agreement.

They are 'ingredients' that from the dispatches of the club consider and that leave 'clear' that they will have to be patient and measure each one of the steps that give, because also the economic situation plays against. It is thus that the next weeks, even months, there will be an infinity of meetings to debate which has to be the ideal profile to relieve to Xavi. It will not be a simple task, because the culés will want to a technician that of continuity to the 'style Barça' of all the life. And there they will reduce the options, surely.

Who will take the decision in the Barça?

What yes seems sure is that Joan Laporta will be headed by the operations -as it happened when the one of Terrassa recaló in the City Condal- and, as it aims the before quoted source, will take the decision with his managerial board. The maximum mandator has 'designated' to Deco, sportive director, as his right hand to achieve to the new trainer. It trusts fully in him and his capacities of negotiation for when they are in this stage. It will be the first big operation of the Brazilian since it took the reins of the sportive area.
