REPORT: Laporta Set For Barcelona Showdown Talks On Koeman Future
Ronald Koeman will meet with Barcelona president Joan Laporta this week about his future at the helm.
Ronald Koeman will sit down with Barcelona president Joan Laporta this week for showdown talks about his future, claims Diario Sport.
After steering the Catalan club to a third place finish in LaLiga, the Dutch coach's future is far from certain.
Koeman did guide Barca to a Copa del Rey title, but the team's last 16 exit from the Champions League sowed the seeds of doubt about his leadership among fans.
It was a season of change at the Camp Nou, with Joan Laporta taking over as president in March and recently stating they will undergo an off-season "renovation" and that their "cycle has ended".
Koeman was appointed by previous president Josep Maria Bartomeu on a two-year deal in August last year.
Laporta will also likely inform the Dutchman to sell up to 10 players to fund their off-season transfer plans.
Barcelona have been linked with a host of players including Sergio Aguero, Erling Haaland and Georginio Wijnaldum this off-season.
