855 Prelude to the Rise of Fantasy Barcelona

Real Madrid reveled after their double over Barcelona, ​​a celebration that lasted well into the night and by the time the game itself ended it was already early morning.

Barcelona returned to Catalonia overnight. After resting until the morning, the club's top management held a meeting, which lasted more than 5 hours.

The Catalan media, and even the entire Spanish media have sent teams to follow up and report on the situation in Barcelona. With a keen sense of smell and not without warning signs before, these media have realized: Barcelona is about to change coaches!

The old man has not gone, the new man is in place, this kind of thing happened once with the Spanish national team coach Aragones, and now it will happen to the Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard.

Although the league is not over yet, the Barcelona club has already confirmed that from next season, the Dutchman will no longer serve as the head coach of Barcelona's first team!

Mourinho, the successor who was widely rumored by the media before, was rejected according to reliable internal information in Barcelona!

As for Barcelona's decision to change coaches, this is not unexpected news, because as early as a few months ago, the Barcelona club had begun to openly search for Rijkaard's successor without any scruples, especially after the team suffered a tragic defeat by Manchester United. After the elimination, the willingness of the decision-makers to change coaches has been irreversible.

However, what makes people feel a little confused is that this news actually appeared before the end of the season. In fact, this is also easy to explain. The club chairman Laporta hopes to use this news to divert fans' dissatisfaction with this season.

According to the latest news collected by the media before this meeting, the Barcelona club is painfully hesitating between the legendary midfielder Guardiola and Getafe coach Laudrup!

Obviously, this meeting will make the final major choice between the two!

Before the meeting ended, some media predicted that Barcelona would eventually choose Guardiola as Rijkaard's successor.

When people think of Guardiola, the first thing that comes to mind is his status as a member of the "Dream Team", and it is this that makes his image at the club extremely brilliant.

on the contrary.Laudrup was once the most famous traitor in Barcelona before Figo-the "evil deeds" of the Danes who switched from Barcelona to Real Madrid in 1994, which is still deeply engraved in the hearts of every Barcelona fan.

In the hearts of Catalans, reputation and loyalty are so important, even more important than strength itself!

Guardiola's outstanding record in the Barcelona echelon in the past year is also his important capital.

The fact that Barcelona's second team was unfortunately relegated from the third division last season made the club lose face, and it was after that that Guardiola took over the team.

After a season of hard work.This should be the highest-level echelon in Catalonia, and finally entered the playoffs of the D league. As long as they break through the playoffs, they can return to the ranks of the C league.

Guardiola's work in the past season has made the club's top management very satisfied, especially when he led the team to those teams that don't even have natural turf.The civilian attitude of hard work and hard work is even more admirable.

In several internal small-scale discussions, Begiristain, the club's technical director who supported Guardiola's entry into the first team, made it clear that since the club has tasted so much sweetness from Messi, Bojan and other players trained by itself, Why can't the same "localization" attempt be made in the position of coach?

This is a reason that is quite convincing to Laporta, in the chairman's view.Barcelona has been in the cloud for too long, and what the club needs in the future is exactly this kind of down-to-earth mentality.

Guardiola was an extremely outstanding figure in the player era, and his temperament was flat, which is exactly what the club currently lacks.

certainly.It is not without hesitation in choosing Guardiola. His own lack of experience in leading teams in the top league is Laporta's biggest concern when making this decision.

In fact, after the news that Guardiola is about to serve as Barcelona coach came out, the biggest reason for fans to oppose this decision on various channels is precisely the "lack of experience".

Choosing Guardiola, Laporta is bound to take certain risks.But think back to when he brought Rijkaard four years ago, why didn't people think that the Dutchman was "unconvincing"?

At the end of the meeting, Guardiola was still working dedicatedly at his job.

He seemed calm and unflappable.In fact, my heart is surging!

He has got the news, in fact, if there is no accident.His promise will be fulfilled and he will become the coach of one of the top giants in European football!

This is simply a step up to the sky for him!

And he himself almost missed this opportunity. At this moment, he felt that he was lucky. At the same time, his ambition was also taking root in his heart. He is a person with ideals and ambitions. He studied under Cruyff and was instilled by the godfather of Barcelona. How lofty is the pursuit of green shade?Outsiders don't know!

At the end of the afternoon training work, Guardiola got the news from the club.

Barcelona is about to hold a press conference to announce that after the end of the season, he and Guardiola will replace Rijkaard as coach!

After Guardiola heard it, he just turned his gaze to the beautiful twilight of the sky, and the seemingly indifferent eyes gradually became sharp and energetic!

Destiny is really impermanent!

Although he did not get the corresponding respect when he left Barcelona and switched to Serie A when his career did not go downhill, Gasparta, the club chairman at the time, did not make any move to keep him. He hesitated to agree, if Barcelona did not give him this opportunity, maybe the first team he coached would be Olympiacos.

While leading the Barcelona youth team, Guardiola had the opportunity to coach the Greek club.

At that time, Guardiola's teammate Rivaldo in Barcelona wanted to invite him to be the coach of Olympiacos, a traditional Greek team.

The Brazilian spent the last few years of his career at Olympiacos, where Rivaldo was the absolute core.After helping the team win consecutive Greek league championships, Rivaldo has gained the absolute trust of the club owner, billionaire Kocaris.

Before the end of the 2006/07 season, Kocaris made a promise to Rivaldo: after hanging up his boots, the position of technical director of the club will belong to the Brazilian, who can take full charge of team affairs.

On the issue of the coach, Rivaldo first thought of Guardiola.

When Rivaldo expressed this meaning to Guardiola, the latter agreed to his old friend.

Unexpectedly, Rivaldo later turned against Kocaris on the issue of contract renewal. After a complete reversal, the Brazilian joined AEK Athens, the arch-rival Olympiacos, and Guardiola continued to coach in the Barcelona youth team, and finally Waiting for the opportunity to turn positive.

Lost in the east and harvested in Sangyu, Guardiola smiled gently when thinking of this past event.

I am now the coach of Barcelona! (to be continued~^~)
