Barcelona sack coach Ronald Koeman. The Dutch manager was sacked after a 1-0 league defeat to Rayo Vallecano. The new misstep came after Sunday’s knockout at home to Real Madrid. Barcelona, in the middle of the league table, also risk not qualifying for the round of 16 of the Champions League. The disappointing results are added to a financial situation that is complex to say the least, with the club forced to downsize the project to face a budget in deep red. For the bench, according to the Catalan newspaper Sport, Xavi Hernandez, Ten Hag, Andrea Pirlo, Roberto Martinez and Marcelo Gallardo are in contention.
