Barcelona's coaching situation is on the verge of a major shift, according to Spanish media reports. Ćiro Pascual, the current coach, is reportedly on the verge of leaving the team, and Greek basketball legend Vasilis Spanoulis is being considered as a replacement.
Spanoulis, who has been without a team since March after leaving Monaco due to internal issues within the club, is a strong candidate for the Barcelona position. The team finished the season in a playoff battle with Monaco, having previously eliminated Red Star Belgrade.
Barcelona has yet to make an official decision regarding Pascual's future, but a split is expected soon. Pascual is reportedly considering a move to Dubai and is willing to pay €300,000 to break his contract with the club.
The main reasons for Pascual's dissatisfaction reportedly include Barcelona's failure to bring in the reinforcements he requested and a lack of clarity regarding the club's budget and long-term plans. However, the club still reportedly wants to keep him.
Other potential candidates for the Barcelona coaching position include Ibon Navarro.
