BREAKING NEWS: Barcelona have made move to appoint former Everton manager to replace Xavi

At Goodison Park, a number of managers have passed through the doors recently.

Among them are Marco Silva, Ronald Koeman, Carlo Ancelotti, and Frank Lampard. The majority of Everton’s appointments have

been for comparatively brief periods of time.

But Roberto Martinez was a manager for over three years. The former manager of Wigan left

the team in May of 2016 after being hired in June of 2013.

The 50-year-old took charge of 143 matches during his time on Merseyside and averaged 1.52 points per game, which is by no means a

bad return.

Now the Spaniard is the Portgual manager, having previously spent four years in charge of Belgium’s national side.

Barcelona make approach for Martinez

Despite only taking the Portugal job in January 2023, Martinez has been linked with one of the biggest jobs in European football.

According to Football Transfers, Barcelona have contacted the former Everton boss over the prospect of replacing Xavi as head coach

in time for the 2024/25 season.

According to the article, Roberto De Zerbi and Rafa Marquez are linked, although there isn’t a clear favorite for the position at this time.

Martinez is thought to have been approached with the possibility of a one-year contract. In addition to his current position as

Portugal’s head coach, the Spaniard may accept the role.
