When it seemed that Ronald Koeman had the hours explained and only was question of time that finished being sacked, Joan Laporta decided to confirm him in the place in front of all the means. "It will continue being trainer of the Barça, understand that it deserves a margin of confidence by a lot of reasons, is barcelonista, a reference in the world of the barcelonismo and a culé", said the president before playing against the Athletic of Madrid.
After these words, the Barça lost in front of the group colchonero in Wanda Metropolitan and did not happen at all with the Dutch, confirming of this way the words of 'Jan'. A change of course tremendo to the history with the technician, that as 'TV3' has an explanation. Jordi Cruyff would have been the key so that the club braked the exit of the trainer when it seemed to be already sentenced.
The son of the mythical Johan is a very near man to Laporta and the president trusts a lot of in his councils and in his opinions, the same that it did it with his father. Before the press conference of Koeman in front of the Athletic, the decision of the leader barcelonista and of the entity was to sack to the of Zaandam sooner that late, but everything changed the Friday, that was when the one of Ámsterdam conversed with the 'presi'.
A day before the meeting in front of the rojiblancos, 'Jan' spoke by telephone with Jordi on the dismissal of the Dutch technician. The sportive adviser of this Barça recommended him and insisted him to his boss that the best for the entity and for the team was to give him something more than margin to his trainer, that deserved another vote of confidence after all.
Cruyff Did to change to resemble Laporta
Cruyff Helped to convince to Laporta urging him to expect to take the decision when they already are recovered all the lesionados. With Ousmane Dembélé, the Kun Agüero and Ansu Fati to full performance, the team could have another face and is therefore by what the Dutch looked for that the 'presi' gave him another opportunity to his compatriot until all were to 100%.
By all this is by what the Saturday of the party, after speaking with more people of confidence, 'Jan' changed his speech on the technician. "Koeman Wants to to the Barça and decided to come in a moment of maximum institutional and sportive difficulty. After speaking with him see that it trusts this team, especially from the moment in that they begin to recover the lesionados", stood out. It will be necessary to see if this speech lasts him a lot or finish tiring if the Barcelona does not recover the senda of the victory.
