To compensate for the departure of the Dutch coach, Barça executives would have pushed to convince Xavi to return. Ronald Koeman is no longer the coach of FC Barcelona. After the defeat against Rayo Vallecano this Wednesday evening, Joan Laporta announced the ouster of his coach on the official website of the Catalan club. “FC Barcelona sacked Ronald Koeman from his position as coach of the first team this evening. Club president Joan Laporta informed him after the loss to Rayo Vallecano. Ronald Koeman will be sacked from the squad on Thursday. FC Barcelona would like to thank him for his services and wish him the best in his career ”, we can read in the press release from Barça. To fill the void left by Ronald Koeman at Barcelona , Joan Laporta would like to bet in priority on Xavi. A choice completely validated by the executives of the blaugrana locker room. According to information from Mundo Deportivo, Xavi would have kept direct contact with the locker room of Barça. Indeed, the former Catalan captain would always forge privileged links with his former teammates, who are now true friends, like Sergio Busquets, Gerard Pique, Jordi Alba and Sergi Roberto. Moreover, these executives of FC Barcelona would have all done what was necessary to convince Xavi to do its return, now, to Catalonia.
