After Barcelona bid farewell to the Champions League in the quarter-finals, everyone is now talking about the next coach to succeed Xavi. The Spanish coach was aspiring to cross Paris in order to increase the possibility of him continuing as Barcelona\u2019s coach, but now his departure has become decided.
\nIn light of this, the Spanish newspaper \u201cSport\u201d confirmed that Barcelona\u2019s exit from the Champions League will speed up the planning process for next season, as Joan Laporta hopes to decide on the new coach after the El Cl\u00e1sico match against Real Madrid, which will be held on April 21.<\/p>\n
She explained that the idea of Xavi continuing is now unlikely, and that he will leave at the end of the season due to his disagreement with retracting his decision to leave and also the negative results that could facilitate his exit.
\nTherefore, the club will begin searching for a new coach, and Rafa Marquez is considered the most likely candidate due to his brilliance with the reserve team and his knowledge of the club\u2019s economic conditions and young players, as stated in the report.<\/p>\n
Joan Laporta is the biggest supporter of the idea of \u200b\u200bappointing \u201cRafa Marquez\u201d as coach of Barcelona next season, following the departure of Xavi.
\nThe report indicated that Laporta believes it is important for the coach to go through the experience of coaching the reserve team before taking over the first team job, similar to the experiences of Guardiola and Enrique, and this matter did not happen with Xavi, but Marquez is doing it now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
