Barcelona's 2019/20 campaign ended on a sour note with a loss to Osasuna, prompting speculation about Quique Setien's future at the club.
Setien took charge of the team in January 2020, but his tenure has been marked by a nine-point swing in favor of Real Madrid, ultimately leading to Los Blancos' La Liga title win.
On July 17, 2020, Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu held an emergency meeting with Setien, according to Sport, with the outcome being that the coach would take charge of the final league match against Alaves before a further discussion.
Although it's thought that Setien will stay on for the remainder of the season, including the Champions League game against Napoli, his long-term future at the club remains uncertain, particularly with Bartomeu's presidency set to expire.
Lionel Messi's post-match comments following the loss to Osasuna were seen as a veiled criticism of Setien's tactics, which the coach acknowledged in a subsequent interview with Sport.
