Whether Koeman stays or goes has become a soap opera, as Barcelona president Laporta is looking for a suitable coach to take the Dutch legend's place, and unfortunately, there are not many coaches that fit the Catalan giants' mold. There are rumors that if Laporta is unable to find a suitable coach, then Koeman will stay on and continue to coach Barcelona. News from the Spanish media RAC1 said that Barcelona president Laporta's most preferred manager is Manchester City's current manager Pep Guardiola, and even his first choice, and hope that he will resign as manager of Manchester City and return to Camp Nou.
It has to be said that Barcelona boss Laporta is overthinking things a bit, after all, Guardiola is at his peak at Manchester City, and the Spaniard, after a succession of setbacks, has finally made it to the Champions League final this season and is battling with Chelsea for the Big Ears Cup this weekend. At the same time, Guardiola also helped City win back the Premier League title this season, and in the League Cup to win the laurels, leading the team to achieve such a formidable record, the Blue Moon boss Sheikh Mansour is very satisfied. Therefore, Barcelona want to invite back Guardiola, return to the Camp Nou coaching, the difficulty is very big.
It is mind-boggling that the Spanish media RAC1 disclosed that Barcelona President Laporta's intention is to let Guardiola resign from the Manchester City handsome position, he believes that once Manchester City won the Champions League title this season, then the Spaniard left the Etihad a little bit more likely to sign back to him a little bit easier. It is worth mentioning that Barcelona, if you want to change the manager, you must fire Koeman, but the problem is that the two sides once the termination of the contract, the club needs to compensate the Dutchman up to 8 million euros, the cruel reality is that the club, which is already heavily indebted, can not afford to shell out the money.
