Barca News
The weeks pass and Deco continues to not close the signing of the next coach of Barça . The continuity of Xavi Hernández is ruled out, so the sporting director continues combing the market in search of the ideal coach.
The club has several names on the table, such as those of Roberto De Zerbi , Thiago Motta , Imanol Alguacil , Mikel Arteta or Xabi Alonso , although what seems to be closest is Hansi Flick , with whom Deco has already maintained several contacts.
The main problem is that the sporting director has some aspects of Flick that he is not quite convinced of, especially his strong temper and his lack of knowledge of the Spanish League and how Barça works, which has led him to consider – is a new option.
As Cadena SER has reported, Deco’s favorite name is that of Luis Enrique Martínez , coach of Paris Saint-Germain , who has a contract with the French club until 2025. Deco wants it for this summer, for the which is studying the possibilities of advancing its arrival.
Luis Enrique, the ideal coach for Barça
First of all, Deco considers that Barça needs a coach with personality , capable of withstanding the strong pressure that comes with being a Barcelona coach, and more so at a time when criticism is constant because of the difficulties in obtaining results. On the other hand, he believes that the ideal is a coach who knows the house, the way of being of the famous environment, as well as the style of play that the fans like. It is obvious that Luis Enrique fully fulfills all these characteristics.
In addition, Barça needs a coach capable of achieving success without stars , due to the lack of money to make big signings, to which is added a coach who trusts the young pearls trained at the Masia. And Luis Enrique is once again the ideal coach, since the Asturian has no problems starting new projects without caring about the names, which he already demonstrated in the Spanish national team.
In addition to all this, Luis Enrique is not having a great experience in Paris . In France he has received a lot of criticism, both for his play and for his results, to which is added that in the summer he will be without Kylian Mbappé. In Paris they demand to win the Champions League and anything other than achieving it will be considered a failure, since winning the league or the Cup is no longer useful. The work that the Asturian is doing to get a team that is more supportive and in which the names are not as important as the core is not valued, so the Asturian does not close the door to change.
The operation is complicated, since the relations between Barça and PSG are not at all good, but if Luis Enrique sees how Paris calls into question his continuity, Barça will go all out for him. This is one of the reasons why Deco continues to not close the signing of Flick, because he does not want to announce it and then see Luis Enrique without a team.
