Due to betting problems, Barcelona loses one of its potential coaches

FC Barcelona is very upset with the coach of the azulgrana reserve team, Rafa Márquez. Four days after his first commercial action in favor of a bookmaker in his country, the Mexican coach has once again used his Instagram account -in this case the 'stories'- to advertise the same sports betting brand.

In the club there is much indignation with the Mexican and have put the issue in the hands of the Compliance department, since they understand that there may be a conflict of interest between coaching a soccer team and advertising a bookmaker.

Despite the fact that they are very happy with his work in charge of the reserve team, proof of which is that Márquez is seen as an emergency solution to Xavi, they do not understand the Mexican's need to carry out this type of actions, which have nothing to do with the values that Barça defends and even less, being a coach who deals with players who are in their last phase of training.

With this situation, Rafael Marquez's options to be Xavi's replacement are completely over: "On June 30, I will not continue as Barça's coach". With this sentence, Xavi put an end to months of speculation about his probable resignation in view of Barcelona's performance this season. Each adverse result, and even some favorable ones, made for weeks that the continuity of the culé technical director was questioned.
