Bilbao coach Valverde to become Barca’s next boss?

Athletic Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde is on his way to Barcelona.

That’s the claim of El Correo, which are reporting this morning Valverde will be the next coach of Barcelona.

Valverde’s deal with Bilbao expires in June and he will “fulfill his dream” to take charge of former club Barca.

An announcement is expected next weekend after the Copa del Rey final.

It’s also suggested Valverde and Barca had a pre-contract agreement, which is due to expire on May 31.
