The latest 3-0 victory of Benfica over FC Barcelona in Portugal in matchday 2 of the Champions League has altered the plans of the 'culé' team to achieve two consecutive wins in the tournament, and as expected, Ronald Koeman's continuity has been questioned.

In the last hours, while it has been suggested that the Culé leadership supports the Dutch coach, other Spanish media also indicate that his time at the club will not last much longer, and there are already names on the list to replace him.

The first of them has shaken not only the Spanish press but also the Argentine press, as it is Marcelo Gallardo, the current coach and idol of River Plate. However, the problem with this hiring is that the 'Muñeco' has a contract with the 'millonarios' until the end of this year, and from his camp, they assure that he will not break that bond before that moment.

Another option without a doubt is Xavi Hernández, the current coach and former star of the Culé team. Xavi has always talked about his desire to manage FC Barcelona, although he still has a bond with Al-Sadd in Qatar.

Among other names that have gained more strength is Andrea Pirlo, an icon of world football, but his first and last experience as a coach was not the best. As it is remembered, Pirlo came to coach Juventus, and the results did not accompany him.
