Ronald Koeman is not at present in the most comfortable position like trainer of the FC Barcelona. Although it has resurrected to the team in the last months and has directed to the Barça to win the Glass of Rey and keep alive in LaLiga Santander, the reality is that to day of today his continuity of face to the next season is not ensured. In the dispatches of the Camp Nou are not entirely convinced that it have to follow to the control if it does not achieve the doublet.
Thus, from 'Sports Four' announced that Joan Laporta went to cease to Ronald Koeman of his functions like technical director of the Barcelona group if it did not win LaLiga and that, in such a case, would be Xavi Hernández the main candidate to occupy his charge. In fact, according to this same information, the Catalan club would have asked him to Xavi that it did not renew with the To the-Sadd to the end of the present campaign and expected the descenlace of the work of Koeman.
However, the ex culé is not the only that it can arrive to the Barcelona bench, although beyond all doubt it is the first option of the club, after Julian Nagelsmann turned into the trainer of the Bayern Munich, knowingly that it was the favourite of Laporta to replace to Koeman. Besides, in the last year have sounded other names of trainers that also could arrive to Can Barça, in case that Xavi Hernández say him "no" to the Barcelona directive.
One of them is Mikel Arteta, current trainer of the Arsenal and ex assistant of Pep Guardiola in the Manchester City. It does some months began to sound for the bench of the Barça and would be a second option for the culés. Still it continues in his process of growth like technician, full of fetters on the way, but equally with results medianamente positive from the Emirates Stadium. It has headed to the 'gunners' to the semifinals of the Europe League, but in the Premier his situation is more than delicate, when occupying the onceava square of the competition, without practically options to put in European places.
Other possible options
In addition to the of San Sebastián, also has sounded recently the name of Erik have Hag, current trainer of the Ajax, but his 'signing' by the Barça is impossible, given to that finish to renew his agreement with the Dutch group until the summer of 2023. However, from the City Condal value his exert with the club in the Eredivise. To his time, also would be between the candidates Roberto Martínez, seleccionador of Belgium, whose work is more than admired in all Europe.
The Spanish has carried to the Belgian to turn into one of the most fearsome selections of the world, reason by which lead the ranking of the FIFA of countries, by in front of France, Brazil, England and Spain. Martínez has positioned like one of the best trainers of the actuality and his tactical work does not happen unobserved in Can Barça.
Finally, it would be Thierry Henry, without team at present. The ex culé began his career like trainer in 2016, like trainer assistant of the Belgian selection, and since has been giving small steps to go growing. The past 25 February 2021, abandoned his charge like technician of the CF Montréal by familiar reasons and is totally free in case that the Barça needed him.
