Ronald Koeman expects to be in charge of Barcelona next season.
The Dutchman believes he will stay be in charge of the team and spoke about the backing he feels he has from new president Joan Laporta.
“The president from the first day has shown his support and confidence in me,” Koeman said in his press conference on Saturday.
“Until the opposite happens then I’ll say the same thing.
“So, in principle, I see myself as the coach for next season. I have a contract as well.

“If that’s not the case, we’ll need to talk.”
Focusing on the current campaign, Koeman discussed Sunday’s trip to take on Unai Emery’s Villarreal.
“It’s all about winning, for us just like for the other teams,” he said.
“I don’t think there’s any title rival much stronger than any other.
“If you don’t win then you’ll have a smaller chance of winning LaLiga.
“I think every match will have its difficult elements.
“This game isn’t necessarily any more difficult than any other.
“It’ll be an interesting match because Villarreal play well and have quality.”
