The FC Barcelona future: possible successors to Ernesto Valverde
We are still in October and there are many unknowns in a season that still has more than half of the fabric to cut. FC Barcelona is currently leading in La Liga and the Champions League but continues to raise doubts about its reliability in the game, as we saw on Wednesday in Prague.
And even though this campaign we have seen a more daring Ernesto Valverde, not only in the changes and rotations. The Txingurri has a contract until June but there are already speculations that he may not continue for a fourth season, even if he wins everything this season, due to the wear and tear of this position.
We saw a few days ago how Ronald Koeman emerges as the clear favorite for the position, which he could take after the Euro 2020 in which he will coach the Netherlands. As reported by As, this newspaper explains that the Barcelona sports management have also wanted to consider other former players as possible coaches.
There are talks about Mark Van Bommel, who currently coaches PSV Eindhoven, although he was only at Barça for one season. And even a La Masia graduate like Thiago Motta is mentioned, who has just taken over Genoa but has little experience.
