Is an appointment maturing? Barcelona's sporting director meets Dutch coach

On 12 March, Barcelona reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League by beating Napoli 3-1 at home. But not only this event marked the game in the Catalan capital.

From the video, which in his account in X (formerly Twitter) published by journalist Victor Navarro, we see that after the match, the sporting director of the Blaugrana Deco met with former Barcelona player Giovanni van Bronckhorst, who has been in the coaching job since 2015.

The Dutchman's track record includes working with Feyenoord, while abroad he has worked with China's Guangzhou and Scottish Rangers. With the Dutch team he won the Eredivisie and the national cup, and the team from Glasgow in 2022 he took the team to the final of the Europa League.

Recall that Barcelona is now actively searching for a successor to Xavi, who will leave the team at the end of the season. It is reported that the club bosses should decide on the name of the new coach by the end of March.
