FC Barcelona management clearly cannot afford to part ways with Dutch coach Ronald Koeman, according to reports from Catalunya Radio.
While his departure and on everyone’s lips for a few weeks in Barcelona, the 58-year-old technician should go to the end of his lease with Catalan training. Linked to Barça until the end of the season, Ronald Koeman has a concrete contract and a separation is by no means envisaged for the moment. While it is true that club boss Joan Laporta has asked his coach to raise the bar in the next three meetings after the humiliation against the Bayern Munich (0-3) last Tuesday in the Champions League, the Catalans can not afford to fire the Batavian.
In the grip of great financial difficulties for many months, FC Barcelona will sink greatly into the red in the event of the dismissal of Ronald Koeman. The Spaniards will have to pay 14 million euros to the former coach of Ajax Amsterdam. Forced to let Antoine Griezmann leave during the last days of the transfer market and unable to register Lionel Messi’s extension contract, the Catalan club still cannot afford to pay unforeseen checks when budgeting for the new season.
In addition to this revelation about the Dutchman’s contract, the local radio station claimed that the latter would receive 6 million euros next June for “sustained prejudice»If he does not extend his lease. The reason ? The former management agreed to include this clause when signing Ronald Koeman because the latter had agreed to drop the selection of the Netherlands to join FC Barcelona.
