Barcelona parted ways with Ernesto Valverde following a series of poor performances from the Catalans. Valverde joined Barcelona in 2017 to replace Luis Enrique. The Spaniard did well in the league as he won two LaLiga titles with Barcelona. Valverde faced a lot of criticism for Barcelona's poor performance in the UEFA Champions League. Quique Setien replaced Valverde as Barcelona's boss. Let's see how the players and fans reacted to Valverde's sacking.

Barcelona initially wanted to get former player Xavi as Ernesto Valverde's replacement. However, the Spanish midfielder denied the offer. Some reports suggest that Xavi wants to manage Barcelona from the start of a new season. Quique Setien's spell till the end of the season will be measured by Barcelona's performance in the Champions League. Quique Setien will lead Barcelona for the first time against Granada on LaLiga Matchday 20.
