Without good results vs Benfica and Atletico, Koeman won't make it past the international break: coach's close friend Canut

"If there are not a couple of spectacular results against Benfica and Atletico Madrid, Ronald Koeman will not make it past the international break," Lluis Canut, a source very close to the Barcelona coach, has told Catalunya Radio's programme Tot Gira.

The Catalan journalist also revealed that Koeman's statement in the press conference ahead of the Cadiz match was prepared by his representatives.

"The day before I had lunch with him, this issue did not come up. It was drafted by a representative and his lawyer," the journalist revealed.

Canut is known to be close to Koeman and has publicly defended the coach in recent weeks. He even attacked Barca's president, saying that there was no proper project at the club.
