Barcelona appoints Ronald Koeman as the New Manager
Barcelona's first European Cup hero, Ronald Koeman is handled the task of steering a wrecked ship. The Dutch is expected to make some tough decision.
FC Barcelona has officially announced the appointment of Ronald Koeman as the new Firts team Manager. He joins the Club in a 2 year long deal whch will end on 30th June 2022. The former Dutch international has resigned from his current position as the National team manager.
It is believed that Barcelona will be compensating the Dutch federation to the tune of 5 million for his service. The Club also confirmed the appointment of Ramon Planes as technical director, who replaces the now sacked Eric Abidal.
Even though many names emerged since the 8-2 drubbing at the hands of Bayern Munich, Ronald Koeman was the only available choice. It was clear from the begining that Bartomeu and gang had hi in mind. One has to wonder whether he was slotted to replace Setien earlier.
Ronald Koeman has an enormous task on his hand. he needs to instil confidence in a squad which is decimated. He needs to sell most of the players and get adequate reinforcement. And he needs to do all that with 45 Million budget + the additional money from player sales!
We are doing just fine 😝😝😝😝 https://t.co/ghD3oftj5d
