CHAMPIONS LEAGUE! Barcelona President Speaks On Sacking Manager Valverde After Sad Night In Anfield Against Liverpool

Posted by E.L.E.X on May 08 2019 under Sports

Barcelona president, Josep Maria Bartomeu, has said the time is not right to discuss the future of manager, Ernesto Valverde, after their Champions League semi-final exit.

The LaLiga champions were crushed 4-0 by Liverpool in the second leg at Anfield on Tuesday, bowing out 4-3 on aggregate.

Valverde is sure to come under fire despite winning back-to-back league titles, having also seen his team give up a lead against Roma in the quarter-finals last season.

But Bartomeu said it was not the time to discuss Valverde’s future, with Barca able to add another trophy this season, when they face Valencia in the Copa del Rey final on May 25.

“We are now very hot because of the elimination.

“Now, we have to raise our spirits because there is a final of the Copa del Rey to play in.

“They will be difficult days for everyone, but we have to get up,” he told Movistar +.
