The player who puts the relationship between Koeman and his board on fire

The Spanish league does not stop, the break is very short, so the customary 10 days of rest are already ending and with this the players report back to the training sessions with theirs different clubs, in addition to the opening of the transfer market. Ronald Koeman will also have his first press conference, prior to the league match against Eibar, with which FC Barcelona will close the complicated year 2020.

During the press conference, the Dutch manager clarified a rumor that was hitting hard throughout the month of December, which was the possible sale of the Brazilian player Coutinho, Koeman made it very clear, that the player is not being sold for any reason, as he has him all the confidence and he also likes his performance on the court, despite the fact that the fans do not agree and want the Brazilian out.

Koeman wanted to make his position with Coutinho very clear, who must remain yes or yes. According to the Dutch coach, the temporary Management Board should not make a decision of such significance for the club due to its temporary role, the one who could make a decision of that magnitude, would be the incoming board of directors. The elections are held on January 24, which will make any sale difficult because the winter market ends in La Liga on January 31

Faced with Koeman's refusal to allow Philippe Coutinho to leave, FC Barcelona will have to seek other solutions to the economic crisis the club is experiencing. Coutinho was the most convenient solution because his price is still very good and he never finished connecting with the fans. The negative of Koeman not allowing the sale of the Brazilian, has caused a discord between the board and the coach.
