Barcelona have fired coach Ronald Koeman following Wednesday’s 1-0 LaLiga defeat to Rayo Vallecano as the club suffered their third loss in their last four league games.
Koeman’s position had been seriously weakened after poor results before the October international break, with back-to-back defeats against Real Madrid and Rayo this week proving the tipping point.
OFFICIAL. Ronald Koeman has been sacked. Barcelona are already looking for a new manager. 🔴🔵 #FCB #Koeman
