FC Barcelona | Reasons for Rafa Marquez’s departure from Barça

Decided. A priori, without return. Rafa Marquez will leave the FC Barcelona discipline. The Mexican coach, who extended his contract with Barça Athletic a month ago, will no longer be coach of the Barcelona reserve team. This Monday is set to be a major blow to the Barça club office, which has already begun to decide who should be his successor since the start of pre-season.

Journalist Gibran Araije of TUDN México broke the news this Friday and, live on the program “Gijantes,” gave more details about the decision to accept Mexico’s offer. “Being close to Javier Aguirre is one of the reasons why Rafa Marquez is accepting this position. He is the best coach in the history of the Mexican national team, we all know his history at international level. It is important for Rafa to complete his training as a coach alongside the best coaches in Mexico. In addition, it includes a ticket to the 20230 World Cup. “Vasco” is leaving the national team, and the federation promises that he will remain a coach in this process at the World Cup.”

HE DOESN’T SEE A HORIZON TO REACH THE FIRST TEAM

Except, Araiche also noted the fact that Rafa Marquez was a little disappointed. when he hasn’t been selected for the first team and doesn’t see that opportunity materialising on the horizon. He still dreams of coaching Barça, but perhaps he sees that there are other ways to achieve that goal.

Monaco or Porto have sounded out the coach from Michoacan, but he decides to take the position, in which he will continue to spend many months in Europe, since he will be responsible for monitoring the Mexican footballers playing on the old continent.
