According to El Chiringuito, Barça president Joan Laporta is considering a return of Pep Guardiola to Catalonia.
Could a return of Josep Guardiola to Barça be in the pipeline? FC Barcelona is forced to look for a new coach at the end of the season, following the announcement of Xavi’s departure. However, if we believe El ChiringuitoPresident Joan Laporta is considering a return of Pep at the head of the Barcelona team.
Guardiola’s return to Barça would be a dream for Blaugrana fans. A dream that currently seems unrealizable. Indeed, the 53-year-old coach is currently in charge of Manchester City, the 2023 English champion and winner of the Champions League the same year. He is also under contract until 2025 with the Skyblues, receiving an annual salary exceeding 20 million euros.
It therefore seems unlikely that the Spanish technician will make his return to FCB, particularly given the financial problems that the reigning Spanish champion is going through. The Catalans will probably have to resign themselves to opting for another coach among the many names already mentioned.
As a reminder, during his tenure at the head of FCB from 2008 to 2012, Guardiola won all the most prestigious titles with the Culés, including two Champions Leagues and three Spanish championships.
