Barcelona Fire Eric Abidal As Sporting Director


Barcelona have sacked Eric Abidal as
sporting director, the club announced in a
statement on Tuesday, a day after
dismissing coach Quique Setien.

“FC Barcelona and Eric Abidal have reached
an agreement for the ending of the contract
that united them,” the club said on its website.

Like Setien, Abidal, a former French
international defender, has paid the price
after Barca ended a season of internal
conflict by surrendering the La Liga title to
Real Madrid and then suffering a humiliating
8-2 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions
League.
