Euro 2020 postponement plays into Setien's hands

The coronavirus pandemic is causing havoc across the world and it has caused almost all sporting events to be suspended, postponed or even cancelled.

The Euros as well as the Copa America were postponed until 2021. According to 'AS', this could be good news for the current Barca boss Quique Setien..

The ex-Betis man took over after Ernesto Valverde's dismissal although he was not Barca's first choice. Ronald Koeman confirmed that he had turned down the offer to succeed Valverde.

The main reason for him saying no was because of Euro 2020. The current Netherlands coach will stay in his post for at least another year so that could give Setien more time to show he is the right man to lead the Catalan giants.

However, at the Camp Nou there is another possiblity: bringing back Xavi Hernandez. Xavi was approached for the Barca job after Valverde was sacked and the ex-footballer told 'La Vanguardia' that he would like to return to the Catalan outfit.
