Koeman appointed Barcelona manager – The World Game
Barcelona have appointed Ronald Koeman as their next coach as the Catalan giants look to rebuild after their 8-2 thrashing by Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Koeman, who has left his role as manager of the Netherlands, signed a two-year-deal with Barcelona, who sacked Quique Setien on Monday after he presided over the club’s worst-ever defeat in European competition.
Koeman, who will be officially presented at the Camp Nou stadium later on Wednesday, is dearly loved at Barca for his role in Johan Cruyff’s hugely successful side known as the ‘Dream Team’ and for scoring the goal that delivered the club’s first European Cup in 1992.
