The club’s press office reports the official football news – Barcelona have dismissed Ronald Koeman from the club’s head coach designation.
Dutchman Ronald Koeman joined Barça back in August 2020 signing the contract until June 2022 in official football transfers.
Most recently, Barcelona faced humiliation in the form of a 0-1 loss to Rayo Vallecano (the football news around it).
Previously, the Blaugrana suffered a 1-2 home defeat in El Clasico, and these football results put Koeman under more pressure.
As a result, the club from Catalonia are now placing 9th in the La Liga standings with 15 points in 10 fixtures.
As for Champions League campaign, the things haven’t been going well there either. This season, with the Dutchman in charge as coach, Barcelona have scraped up only 3 points after 3 UCL games.
