According to Mundo Deportivo, German head coach Hans
Frick
Still dreams of coaching FC Barcelona. Despite several Premier League clubs, including Chelsea, showing keen interest in him, the
Barcelona
Frick won't decide his future until the situation is clear.
Frick has clearly rejected Chelsea and prioritized Barcelona. Frick was very close to Barca even before the meeting between Barca president Laporta and current boss Xavi at their home a month back. Now, with Laporta showing huge dissatisfaction with Xavi, things have taken a new turn at Barcelona, which further increases the chances of Frick coaching Barcelona.
According to a new report from Mundo Deportivo, after the match against Sevilla, Barcelona will hold an important meeting to discuss the future coaching of the team. The meeting will be attended by sporting director Deco, vice-president Yuste and other members of the management, in addition to Laporta and Xavi.
It is worth noting that Frick's agent Zahavi has a close relationship with Laporta. Under the current circumstances, if Laporta decides not to let Xavi continue to coach, then the two most likely candidates to replace his position are the B-team boss Max and Frick, who has been preparing for this for a long time.
