In the offices of the FC Barcelona are not for nothing happy with the start of season of the team, headed by Ronald Koeman, reason by which from does some days have been in the research of a new trainer that can relieve to the Dutch of his charge. The decision would be taken, according to the last informations, and the position of the club is more than clear: it is necessary a change and the one of Zaandam can not be more to the control of the bench. The problem, in any case, is the payment of the clear, the 'when' and 'by who'.

Since it began the disaster of the Barça, with the party and new humiliation in front of the Bayern of Munich, continued with the parties in front of the Granada, Cádiz and the last in front of the Benfica, the directive has taken an edict and understands that the situation is unsustainable in this point, by what have gone out to the light the names of the possible replacements for Koeman in the moment that produce his dismissal, if it is that it occurs.

They are varied the names that are on the table, as the one of Xavi Hernández, Roberto Martínez, Andrea Pirlo, Marcelo Gallardo, among others, but for the final election in the club value two appearances: that they can adapt to the financial situation of the club, that is to say, that can assume his cost and the one of his technical body, as well as that they can represent the ideals, principles and bases of the team. In this point, the 'cruyffismo' is importantísimo for the candidates. From 'FCBN' arises us the interrogante of who would be for our readers the ideal trainer to replace to Ronald Koeman:


All the above-mentioned are qualified to assume the charge, but is important to review the current situation of each one of them. Beginning with Xavi Hernández, a man 'of the house' and that has added a lot of experience to the control of the To the-Sadd. It is a trainer rooted to the Barcelona values and like this has showed it in his team. It has offered to train to the Barça, but is something in what it would have to work the club because in his agreement with the club catarí, renewed does some months, does not exist a clause for recalar in the Camp Nou in case that the culés contact it.

In the case of Roberto Martínez, is a trainer that has 'revolutionised' to the selection of Belgium and that has gone back it very competitive, but without still win titles. Has an agreement with the 'red devils' until the World-wide of Catar in 2022, but has left opened his future aiming that "I want to fulfil my agreement, but can arise a lot of things on the way"... Although for the moment, according to him same has confirmed, have not existed conversations or negotiations with the Barcelona picture.

Another of the names that has arisen in the discussion is the one of Andrea Pirlo, that would be the favourite candidate of Joan Laporta, although has very little experience directing clubs and that in the Juventus happened it very bad the past year. The 'Architect', nevertheless, is a free agent (after his dismissal of the 'Vecchia Signora') and has the backrest of the president, although has paints it to be, as it seems, a new 'patch' in the Barcelona club.

Option from Argentina?

Marcelo Gallardo, trainer of River Plate Argentinian, is one of the trainers that carry years sounding to arrive to the Barça. It has achieved to turn into one of the most important technicians of the American continent, but is not interested in leaving Argentina and train to the Barça, or this is what has left clear in one of his last press conferences, aiming that "already all know that my thought and my decision is to fulfil the agreement and do not go to distract me with extraneous thoughts. Tengo The contractual commitment to focus me in what it depends on me, that is to follow connected with what represents to be DT of River and because it never will go through me the head abandon".
