An old problem is the tension between the Real Betis captain and Barcelona coach
Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman refused to respond to the criticism leveled by Real Betis captain Joaquin Rodriguez a few days ago due to an old problem between them when Koeman was coach of Valencia.
The Spanish newspaper "Sport" reported today that an important part of the questions in the press conference held today at Barcelona club, and before the upcoming confrontation between Barcelona and his guest Betis tomorrow in the Spanish League, focused on the problem of Coman and Joaquin old, and the recent statements of Betis' captain.
Coman said that Joaquin has the right to speak as he pleases, but he does not give a damn, and he does not want to hear anything about this issue again.
He said that there is nothing personal between him and Joaquin, and that if he wants to play to talk about this issue, that only concerns him, and that all his focus is in the game only.
The problem between the two parties relates to when Koeman took over as Valencia coach for a short period in the 2008 season, and one of his most prominent decisions was to exclude some of the prominent players, including Joaquin.
Betis captain said in a press statement a few days ago that the coach treated him in a disrespectful way, and that he did not want to look at his face or deal with him in any way.
