Meeting with Mourinho confirmed (but…)

Barcelona vice president Marc Ingla admitted in an interview with the Catalan radio station Ona FM that he met with former Chelsea manager José Mourinho (read more here and here). He nevertheless denied that he and Barcelona sports director Txiki Begiristain had been negotiating about the Portuguese coming to Barcelona next season to replace current manager Frank Rijkaard.

Although Ingla considers Mourinho to be “a great manager”, Barcelona is still very happy with the way Frank Rijkaard is doing his job and a change is therefore not considered: “We don’t have a list of managers who could replace Rijkaard. We’re satisfied by his work and together with him we’re already planning for the next season."
