From the resounding defeat against the Bayern Munich in the Champions League in the very hard-fought league draw against Granada: the Barcelona di Ronald Koeman fails to take off and the management is now thinking about a replacement.
The moment of the Blaugrana is not at all positive: in the summer the club lost its most important asset, Leo Messi, and forced several players to substantially reduce their salaries in an attempt to restore the balance sheet. Koeman's position, at least from this point of view, seemed little in question. On Monday, however, there was the straw that was threatening to break the camel's back: a draw at home with Granada caught in the final minutes after suffering throughout the match. Difficulties that have led the management to reflect: the next matches against will be decisive Cadiz, Levante and Benfica (in the Champions League) to determine the future of the Dutch coach.
Meanwhile, among the Spanish reports, there is a hunt for the heir: according to the program El Chiringuito TV at the top of the list is right there Andrea Pirlo, last year in his first experience on the bench at Juventus. The idea of the Blaugrana is to hire a sort of "ferryman", given that the main plan includes assigning the role of coach of the club to the great ex Xavi, who however the management does not consider ready for the big leap.
