On FC Barcelona's agenda to replace Xavi Hernández at the end of the season, the name of Jürgen Klopp who will leave Liverpool and who will hardly give up his desire to take a sabbatical year is maintained.

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The FC Barcelona keeps his casting to find the ideal substitute for Xavi Hernández, the one who will abandon the bench from 30 June after all the pressure that has supposed these last months to the control of the team. From the dispatches of the club have left 'clear' that it will be an extensive process and in which they will take in account too many factors in the sportive section and, also, economic. That is to say, it will not be a simple decision neither much less fast.

The name of Jürgen Klopp is one of which more has called the attention since the trainer egarense announced his resignation. It is one of the few that it could arrive 'free' -without paying a remuneration a club-, after it decided that it will abandon the Liverpool in summer. The Teutonic carries more than a decade 'colándose' between the best technicians of all Europe and has been key so that the 'Reds' competed in England and the old continent in spite of the command of the Manchester City. His experience contrasted and capacity for 'raise' a crisis have turned him into the best candidate; something that does not suppose that it was simple.

The possible leaf of route of the Barça

In fact, Klopp is the most difficult option that offers the market. Beside his decision to abandon Anfield, also left clear that it wants to take a sabbatical year before going back to train. It announced that it would not go back to train in England, by respect to the 'reds', that would be an authentic 'advantage' for the Barça. The problem is that the culés him 'need' from already. They are not in conditions to expect or have a year of transition, by what supposes the big disadvantage of the trainer Teutonic.

The true is that the newspaper 'SPORT' has revealed the steps that would have to follow the Barça to try convince to Klopp, in case that finally it was the elected to occupy the bench. The most difficult is to try convince him of 'postergar' his rest after a decade to the maximum level. It is the most important point and the one who more would take time, because if there is something that has remained clear is that it wants to move away of the pressure of these last years.

The economic factor plays a paramount paper

In the Barcelona group are conscious that the Teutonic always has had some predilection by Spain, that has a finca in Mallorca (and is used to vacacionar a lot there) and that, after his go through Germany and England, train in LaLiga is a step that is missing him. It does not remain there, because they have to be able to present him a project that was able to convince him, from the economic and sportive section. The Barça has to be conscious that Klopp is accustomed to millionaire projects and in which there is not 'limits' to the hour to spend in signings.
