Ronald Koeman has not yet managed to transfer even one training session at Barcelona, and is already absorbing a blazing fire from every direction. This time it was Manuel Pellegrini's turn to attack the Dutch coach, who reportedly informed Luis Suarez that he was not in the plans for the upcoming season in a phone call that lasted less than a minute.
"When I look at it from the side, it seems to me wrong to have," the Chilean coach told ESPN. "As a coach, you have to be direct and brave enough to talk to players face to face even when you have bad news. I personally had to do it a lot of times, but releasing a player on the phone seemed to me a cowardly and disrespectful act. Both towards the coach and the player ".

According to reports in Spain, Suarez was greatly hurt by Barcelona's attitude towards him and the way he was told he would not continue with the team. In Spain it was claimed that the conversation between him and Coman was extremely short, and that he "barely issued a trial" during it.
Also, the conversation in question apparently also contributed to Leo Messi's decision not to continue at Barcelona. Suarez is still looking for his next team. His name has been linked with a move to a number of senior teams, including Juventus and Manchester United. He is also reportedly in talks with Inter Miami, the MLS team owned by David Beckham.
