While Xavi will leave FC Barcelona at the end of the season, a great coach has reportedly positioned himself to take his place.

THE FC Barcelona will experience a new turning point in its recent history at the end of the season. Arriving in November 2021, favorites to win the Champions League.

Conte offers himself to Barça

In Catalonia, we are obviously working on the successor of the Spanish technician and rumors have been flying since the announcement of Xavi’s departure. This Thursday, Sport revealed that a coach had offered his services to the Blaugranas to take up the free coaching position at the end of the season. This is’Antonio Conte, who would have simply submitted his candidacy to the management of Barça. Since his departure from Tottenham in March 2023, the Italian technician has no longer coached and is therefore free to engage wherever he wishes.

But the former coach of Juve, Chelsea or even Inter Milan would not appear on the list of coaches targeted by Barcelona, ​​which has dreamed of attracting Jürgen Klopp since the announcement of his departure from Liverpool at the end of the season . Despite his experience and his impressive record, there is currently little chance of seeing Conte officiate at the Camp Nou next season.
