The FC Barcelona begins the season 2023/24 in full restructuring of his sportive direction. As it has been habit in the last eight years, the club bets by a new change of rudder in his technical organisation chart, in this case by personal decisions of Joan Laporta and of Mateu Alemany. The arrival of Deco to the sportive direction supposes a new goodbye for Mateu, after filtering his exit to the Aston Villa in June, which did not concretise .
Then, the one who if it opted for stepping definite to the side was Jordi Cruyff, with the one who Alemany had done a good tandem from 2021. Cruyff Exerted like technical secretary and sportive director, yielding leadership mediático to Mateu. However, the return of Deco to the club supposes a change of cycle in an area that, from the exit of Andoni Zubizarreta in 2015, has lacked stability and, in a lot of cases, logic to take decisions.
Eight years of a lot of changes and projects fallidos
The start of the mandate of Josep María Bartomeu brought achieve the arrival of Robert Fernández like technical secretary of the first team, with Pep Safe to charge of the filial. Fernández held the 'serials' of the goodbye of Neymar and the arrivals of Ousmane Dembélé and Philippe Coutinho in 2017, leaving the witness to Safe in 2018 after differences with Bartomeu. Pep, by his part, stepped to the side a year later, after varied brush with Eric Abidal.
The ex side culé went out by the rear door in 2020 after a bochornoso crossing with the staff, just when the club crossed his worst sportive moment of the last 20 years. Ramón Plans commissioned of the technical secretary until finals of 2021, although Joan Laporta restarted the control around the middle of year. The return of Joan brought achieve to Alemany and Cruyff. Now, Deco assumes the challenge to break the 'maleficio' of a very hot charge in Can Barça.
Deco Will try to emulate the done by Begiristain
The ex international luso landed in Catalonia in 2004, just when Txiki Begiristain began to give touch them final to the team of Frank Rijkaard. Begiristain Was seven years in the technical office, until June of 2010. Andoni Zubizarreta Occupied the charge until 2015 and, from here from now on, already know the history. Deco Will bet by his good relation with Xavi Hernández like the base of his management, in addition to incorporating to other old known (Bojan Krkic, the first) to win confidence to his around. In the meantime, Laporta assents expecting time of elder calms in the flat elder culé.
