Barcelona intends to dismiss its coach, Quique Setien, in the upcoming days, after the team's humiliating defeat by Bayern Munich.

Barcelona lost two to eight goals at the hands of Bayern Munich, to be excluded from the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League on Friday.

Barcelona is expected to appoint its former player Xavi Hernandez as head coach of the team, noting that the latter is currently training Al Sadd, Qatar.

Sports newspapers expect the Catalan to try to seek the help of Mauricio Pochettino, the former coach of Tottenham, although the latter had previously stated that he would not train Barcelona because he played and trained with its rivals Espanyol.

Among the names that sports newspapers circulated today to train the team, Ronald Koeman, who played with Barcelona in his golden days and he is currently coaching the Netherlands, and Mauricio Sarri, who was dismissed by Juventus a few days ago, and some expect that he will train Messi after he trained Ronaldo.

After all these speculations, Barcelona fans feel down due to yesterday's match.

A fan named Khordi Buchan said, "Yesterday was not a good day to play in the Champions League, especially with this team that we have now ... a lot of things have to change in the management, coaches, and players."

Another fan, Andre Alemani, said, "When I was watching the match, I was praying for the torture to end quickly, and I saw big names from the team members leaving because of the result. We must change things. First, the club president must be removed, the coach, who we do not know where he came from, then half of the team. "

Fabian Gonzalez, who is also a Barcelona fan, said, "Setien has to leave. He has never managed the team, and he has never had a good relationship with the important players. I think Xavi Hernandez should be the replacement. That would be a good thing because he carries the Barcelona genes."
