Sergio Conceição seems to be one of the names that the FC Barcelona sports management most likes to succeed Xavi Hernández at the end of next season. However, the Portuguese coach has not yet made clear his position regarding the alleged interest of the Catalan team

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona finds in the active research of a trainer for the next season after Xavi Hernández announced that it will not follow like technician of the team from 30 June. Between the profiles considered by the sportive direction culé, stands out the Portuguese Sergio Conceiçao, current preparador of the Port wine and whose agreement with the 'Dragons', if there is not some change, also will expire on 30 June of this year.

Although the style of game of the native of Coimbra differs of the that is used to implement in the diagram of the combined of the City Condal, there are not doubts on his efficiency. It is necessary to remember the two very good meetings that had against the Barça in the UEFA Champions League, where in spite of having lost both (0-1 and 2-1), showed good moments of command of the game and was near to obtain the victory. Equally, his skill to work with young talents of the quarry and do successful incorporations with a budget limited turn it into a very attractive name for the Barcelona.

Although it has rumoreado that Sergio Conceiçao would not see with bad eyes recalar in the Catalan picture, does not know with certainty the opinion of the trainer. In the previous press conference to the party of his team against the River Bird in the Primeira League, avoided to hint on his possible adventure like culé in the next season. No desvinculó of the possibility to go to the Barcelonan square, as they did it other trainers like Imanol Bailiff (Real Sociedad), Mikel Arteta (Arsenal) and Míchel Sánchez (Girona), but neither 'wetted' around a possible union to the group culé.

His renewal with the 'Dragons'

In the first place, the Portuguese has descartado completely the idea to speak on his renewal with the Port wine. "To the players and to which are at the end of agreement am used to them say that it does not suffice with having agreement, it is necessary to feel the club. Have agreement is not important if they are responsible, devoted, workers and professional. This is the important", affirmed.

It is important to remember that there are several sources in Portugal that affirm that the renewal could carry out if the current president of the combined Portuguese, Paint gives Coast, is reelected the next month of April, suggesting a possible 'pact' between both parts to give continuity to the project.

Conceiçao At present only thinks in the Port wine

Sergio Conceiçao left clear that, for now, only is centred in his present with the 'Dragons'. "My paper and the one of the players is to think exclusively in serving to the FC Carry and do the best for the main team and the B, but to me only interests me win to the Laugh Bird, is fundamental and have it clear in the head, of this do not have any doubt", puntualizó.

To close, in front of the recent announcement of Xavi Hernández, that opens the door to rumours on his possible occupation of this place in the Barcelona bench, Conceiçao avoided again answer to this question."I think that there is a lack of respect to Luis Freire and what has done Laugh Bird (...). This is important for me. I am working this week, taking me some hours to see the party of the Lighthouse (...). I understand what more speaks in the press, but would like me speak more than football", concluded.
