Here is a documentary which should cause collateral damage to FC Barcelona. Dutch television has indeed broadcast a documentary entitled "Forca Koeman" revealing in particular the exchanges at the beginning of the summer between the agent of Ronald Koeman, Rob Jansen and the president of the Blaugranas Joan Laporta.

We thus discover the at least nebulous discourse of Laporta on the future of his technician. Third in the last Liga exercise, Barça in full reconstruction also gleaned the Copa del Rey in parallel.

A visibly insufficient record for the strong man of the Catalan club who is moved by Koeman during a discussion with broken sticks. Exchanges revealed by the former coach of the Netherlands in this documentary. “We always got along well. And then the president said to me: I still have doubts. We need more time and we will look for other options for the coaching position. We can't say anything else, ”Koeman said, revealing the content of the conversation with his president. Irritated, the former manager of Everton is rightly offended by the multiple presidential procrastination towards him. Comments corroborated by his agent Rob Jansen who allowed himself to add a layer.

“Laporta said he needed two or three weeks to find a new candidate. And if he couldn't find one, then Ronald could continue on the bench. “An ubiquitous speech that goes badly for the representative of the Dutch coach. The latter also explains that he has not spoken to Laporta since this famous discussion. “It was a crazy decision, based on nothing. Based solely on feelings. I did not speak to Laporta afterwards. But luckily the people around him helped Koeman stay. So the president came out to the media saying that they would continue together, that they were friends. It's the hypocrisy of top-level sport, ”said Jansen, visibly upset at the turn of events.
