Ronald Koeman has gone back to speak on the actuality of the FC Barcelona, in this opportunity taking advantage of his role of seleccionador of Low Countries to criticise the management of the Catalan club with the injury of Frenkie of Jong. The ex Barcelona trainer already had left some 'dart' during the preparation of the Eurocopa, ensuring that the Barça had done to play to the midfield player without being to 100%.

Now, Koeman has spoken on the current state of the footballer, ensuring that it speaks with him regularly and that Of Jong is not calm with his problem in the right ankle. "Claro that speak with him, know us well, is concerned by his injury. Before the Eurocopa expected that it was well, knew that in the first party would not arrive to play but had hopes, but did not go like this", explained.

Koeman Has clear that Of Jong still is far to go back

Likewise, the míster Dutch ensured that Of Jong "has an important injury and it is necessary to expect to see how follows everything", said. "I wish him luck and that recover early, but still is not to play", signalled. The player of 27 years lesionó the past month of April the same ankle that already had suffered a sprain in January, something that has delayed him his recovery, leaving it even with a possible chronic injury.

The Dutch has gone back to give his assessment to the management of Joan Laporta

Already in another line, and as it comes being habit, Koeman went back to show very critical with the management of Joan Laporta, leaving clear that with him to the control hardly the Barça will go back to be in conditions to compete. "I understand the interest by Nico (Williams) because it is a big player. I do not know if they are rumours or if they are intentions to think that they can struggle by this type of player. In the last years the problem of the Barça has been that Messi is was, I am was, Xavi is was... I think that the best is to respect to the legends of the club. This is much more important that struggle by a player", highlighted.

The champion of Europe with the Barça in 1992, also left clear that the Barça has a good team, but needs a similar star to Kylian Mbappé, the one who will be in the Real Madrid from this season. "In a lot of things the Madrid is upper to the Barça. I know that he Barça has a lot of young people like Lamine, Pedri or Gavi, but needs people like Mbappé that marks the differences in all the senses. If you do not have this type of players or somebody like Messi... Lamine To his age is impressive, but it is necessary to give him time and tranquility", highlighted.
