FC Barcelona achieved a terrible result once again yesterday, drawing against Rayo Vallecano and missing a great opportunity to become almost leaders of the tournament. For this reason, plus the lack of good football, coach Culé walked on a tightrope and his future at the helm of Barça is not assured.

Diario Sport claims that the FC Barcelona board of directors already has someone lined up to replace Xavi next season if things don't go as expected at the Blaugrana club. This is a man who has been having a very good campaign in the local tournament and in the Champions League he has been dazzling with impressive results. The technical director that Bartomeu is looking for is none other than Imanol Alguacil, the current coach of Real Sociedad who is all the rage in the continental competition.

Imanol Alguacil has a contract until June 2025 with Real Sociedad, although a possible offer from FC Barcelona could lead to his departure from his current club. The goal of the man born in Orio is to take the big leap in his career as a coach and this would be a unique opportunity, since the board of directors greatly appreciates the football of a former soccer player.

For now, Imanol Alguacil remains focused on Real Sociedad and the upcoming matches for the Spanish championship and the Champions League, although he knows that he has a great opportunity behind him and he will not want to waste it. It all depends on Xavi and his players, who will have to leave behind the crisis they have been facing.
