Seems like there’s a true conflict between the two.
Ahead of the 2020/21 season, Ronald Koeman asked Riqui Puig and some other young players ‘to find a new team’, according to credible El Pais.
To make his stance clear, Koeman sent Puig to the stands before Barca’s friendly game against Elche in September.
Riqui was seemingly frustrated with this decision as he made his talk with Koeman public.
The Dutchman was furious at the youngster and called him ‘a leaker’ in front of the entire Barca team.
After that, the 21-year-old has barely had any game time at Barca; we’re yet to see whether the talented midfielder starts against Levante on Sunday.
