Laporta does not want to appoint the former Barca captain and may turn back to his beloved Pep

Barcelona are looking for a replacement for Ronald Koeman. The biggest name linked is their former coach Pep Guardiola.

The Man City coach is in the Champions League final against Chelsea on Saturday and there are rumours he will leave if they win in Porto. Where will he go? He has a great relationship with Joan Laporta.

Koeman will have to wait to find out if he will still be in charge next season.

The Xavi option has been parked for now, because Joan Laporta is not in favour of his return yet. There are other names on the table. Joachim Low, Marcelo Gallardo, Roberto Martinez, Thierry Henry and even Garcia Pimienta.
