Barcelona need a coach like Jurgen Klopp to bring the club to order, according to one of the club’s presidential candidates Jordi Farre.
Jurgen Klopp would be an ideal fit at Barcelona, believes Jordi Farre.
Farre is one of Barcelona’s presidential candidates set to contest next season.
After an abysmal season for the Catalan giants, it’s not a surprise that a lot of changes will be made ahead of next season. On and off the pitch, the Spanish giants are in need of a fresh approach.
Koeman already came in for Setien and Eric Abidal was another top profile departure too. However, Farre reveals he has already spoken to Klopp and his entourage ahead of a potential vacancy at the club. Any of those plans will only depend on the outcome of the next club presidential elections anyways.
As an insider to the club, Farre is ready to give Koeman the benefit of the doubt but believes Klopp might have been a better option than the Dutchman.
The Spaniard told Diario Sport: “If Koeman works and does well, he would be, of course. Obviously, we have our roadmap and we had already started several conversations with Jurgen Klopp, because it seems to us that Barca need such a coach.”
Pressed on whether Koeman is the right appointment for Barca at present, Farre responded: “It is an exceptional moment and Koeman is a good solution considering that he is a legend of Barcelona, a benchmark. Because of his character, I think that was what the club needed now. I wish him the best because the challenge is huge.”
