Talk is still ongoing about the next Barcelona coach and his identity is the main concern of Barcelona fans and the management of the Catalan team in this period.
It is noteworthy that Barcelona is suffering from fluctuation in results and the level of the team this season, which forced Spanish coach Xavi Hernandez to make the difficult decision and announce his departure from the Catalan team at the end of the current season.
In light of this, and according to information received from the Spanish newspaper “Sport”, Joan Laporta agreed in principle to appoint Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi to take over the task of coaching Barcelona instead of Xavi Hernandez, as the agents will find a solution with Brighton.
The newspaper added that the agents guaranteed that they would reach an agreement with Brighton to coach Barcelona, as he has a release clause of 10 million euros.
The newspaper confirmed that there is fear within the team about appointing this coach because some coaches who are not exposed to pressure are expected to fail to a large degree, and the pressure that coaches are exposed to in Barcelona is irresistible.
The closest example is Guardiola, who stated that the pressure in Barcelona is not comparable to the pressure in any other club.
