Barcelona Terminate Eric Abidal’s Contract As Backroom Clear-out Continues

The French former full-back is the latest to have been shown the door, with Josep Maria Bartomeu still not prepared to offer his own resignation.

Barcelona have announced the termination of technical manager Eric Abidal’s contract as the club’s backroom purge continues.

The Catalan club announced the sacking of head coach Quique Setien on Monday following a dreadful end to the 2019-20 season, Barca having conceded the Liga title to eternal rivals Real Madrid and crashing out of the Champions League in dramatic style.
