Laporta is looking for the new coach of Barça
The president of FC Barcelona, Joan Laporta, is immersed in the search for the new coach for the team. After the departure of Ronald Koeman, Laporta has three candidates in mind: Luis Enrique, Xavi Hernández and Hansi Flick.
The preference for Xavi Hernández
Laporta has expressed his preference for Xavi Hernández to continue as Barça coach. Although Xavi has expressed his intention to leave at the end of the season, Laporta hopes to convince him to change his mind and continue on the bench for another year.
The possibility of Luis Enrique
Laporta does not rule out the possibility of Luis Enrique returning to Barça as coach. Although currently under contract with PSG until 2026, Luis Enrique has expressed his interest in managing the Barça team in the future. However, his arrival seems unlikely at this point.
Hansi Flick’s choice
If Xavi and Luis Enrique are unavailable, Laporta has Hansi Flick as his main option. The German, who currently does not have a team, has shown interest in managing Barça and has already begun to get to know the Blaugrana team. Flick has even met with Pep Guardiola to talk about the club.
In short, Laporta is working to find the best coach for Barça. Xavi Hernandez, Luis Enrique and Hansi Flick are the main candidates, and while Laporta has a preference for Xavi, he is open to other options should his addition not be possible.
