The Dutch coach says he has his ideas for the future but didn't name names

Ronald Koeman didn't want to talk about the possible signing of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland in his pre-Cadiz press conference on Saturday.

Asked about any potential interest in the Norway frontman, who scored twice in his side's 3-2 win over Sevilla in the Champions League, the Dutch coach gave a brief response to avoid his comments being taken out of context.

"I have my ideas for the club's future but I have to wait and see who the new president is to sit down with him and talk about the future," Koeman said.

It's well known, though, that Koeman wants to strengthen Barça's attack, but being so far away from the transfer window and without a president makes making any plans difficult.

For that reason, Koeman preferred to say nothing and to show respect to Haaland and the German club.

Previously, Koeman has been criticised by Lyon coach Rudi Garcia for showing an interest in striker Memphis Depay.
