Barcelona (AP) - FC Barcelona parted ways with coach Quique Setién after the 2: 8 debacle against FC Bayern Munich.
The successor to the 61-year-old will be announced in the next few days, said the Spanish club of world footballer Lionel Messi and DFB national goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen.
According to the information, the decision was made at an extraordinary board meeting in Barcelona just three days after the historic bankruptcy in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
