Although it is a complicated option due to the contractual factor, Joan Laporta would have more than one reason to consider that Luis Enrique is not the ideal coach to relieve Xavi Hernández in case he leaves this summer

Calendar of FC Barcelona

In the FC Barcelona have left in 'stand by' the operation to find to his new trainer. It has happened little more than two months since Xavi Hernández announced his resignation of his charge, effective from 30 June, and from the club have left clear that the intention is to achieve that the egarense change to seem and keep in the bench on a long-term basis. The official posture of the club is clear: "we Think in an on a long-term basis led project by him and have a team to do big things in the future. We are not speaking of one or two seasons", said Rafa Yuste in the last hours.

This does not remove that from the dispatches of the club are evaluating the different alternative that it can present the market of signings of face to the summer. The ideal stage is that it concretise the continuity of Xavi, but in case that they do not achieve it have alternative: Roberto of Zerbi, Hansi Flick, Julian Nagelsmann and Luis Enrique are the names that handles the sportive direction.

The Barça defines his posture with Luis Enrique

The Asturian, that already went through the bench culé between 2014 and 2017, is the favourite alternative of Deco Souza. It is a trainer of the 'house', countered and that has the ideal profile to assume the reins of the team, although has valid agreement with the Paris Saint-Germain until the 2025. However, Joan Laporta would not have it so clear like the Brazilian, according to a recent information of the newspaper 'SPORT'.

To day of today, the maximum Barcelona mandator "would not see at all clear" the return of Luis Enrique and would bet by "other roads" to reinforce the bench in case that, finally, Xavi Hernández do his cases to final of season. Rafa Yuste, economic vice-president, backs the posture. At the end of day, will be the cúpula the one who take the definite decision and Luis Enrique does not split like favourite.

It is true, in any case, that is not a simple option. In fact, it seems an utopia that can return to the City Condal because has agreement in force in the capital of France and does not have intentions to go out. It commented it in Twitch recently: "The reality says that it is very difficult to cross the ways. I finish my stage in the selection in 2022, is difficult that I was free and that the Barcelona want me. In this moment already had trainer. And in this summer, will need trainer, but already have agreement, and have by norm fulfil my agreements. Have by norm correspond to the people that trusts me".

The Barça follows betting by Xavi Hernández

In the Barça will continue betting by the option that Xavi remain and from 'SPORT' have enumerated the reasons that has the directive. There is not an option in the market that them "enamore" entirely and consider that the surroundings has been unfair with the egarense. Besides, they defend that they will not find to a player that know so much the house and that dare so much to bet by the players of The Masia. It achieved two titles after the period more 'dark' of the club and understand that it deserves more confidence of which has given him up to now.
