Barça The reasons why Laporta keeps Koeman's second plate, with Jordi Cruyff as controller

Joan Laporta
continues to carry out an in-depth remodeling of the
Barça
structure
. In this case, with a special emphasis on Barça youth football and on the figure of the one who has been exercising in recent years as spokesman for the entity:
Guillermo Amor
. The former player,
Director of Institutional and Sports Relations
since October 2017, had his contract with the club terminated today. Curiously, his return to the Barça discipline, in the first instance, took place at the hands of Laporta himself, as director of
La Masia
. In the quarry, meanwhile, highlights the dismissal of a
Francisco Javier García Pimienta
who still had one year of contract left as
coach of B
and whose name rang out with great force as a possible head of the first team last year.
The fact that the Barcelonista subsidiary has remained at the gates of the promotion of category in two seasons would be the main argument that is wielded from the club to justify the end of its stage in the entity.
And that, in January of last year, when the
Bartomeu
board
decided to do without
Ernesto Valverde
, in the first place, and about the month of August, later, when
Quique Setién
was struck down
, García Pimienta was outlined as the best option for take over the Barça first team.
A bet that, according to what was openly assured in the Barça environment, would have even had the approval of the main figures in the dressing room.
Almost a year later, instead, it has been decided to kick it.
Sergi Barjuan, the chosen one
Right now, the name that is sounding louder as García Pimienta's replacement at the head of Barça B is that of
Sergi Barjuan
. The former Barça winger has experience in grassroots football, since, since 2009, he took charge for a couple of years of a Juvenil B in which players such as
Gerard Deulofeu or Rafinha Alcántara stood out
. Recreativo de Huelva, Almería, Mallorca and Hangzhou Greentown are the other clubs in which the former Barcelona captain has been practicing as a coach. In the latter case, until July 4, 2019, when the Chinese entity decided to end a relationship that had begun on November 26, 2017.
The revolution that Laporta's board wants to carry out in grassroots football has not been limited to the subsidiary.
Rafael Yuste
, first vice president and head of the sports area, and
José Ramón Alexanco
, new director of the quarry, are in charge of carrying out a series of very profound changes. For now, the entity has already been informed of the rescissions of their respective contracts to
Aureli Altimira
, until now responsible for football 11 and who was one of
Pep Guardiola's
assistants
throughout his time at Barça, and
Álex García
, responsible in the last times of the Barcelona scouting.
Jordi Roura, who was second to
Tito Vilanova
in the first team and with whom the terms of the termination of his contract would be negotiating
, is also being finalized
.
