I'd be staggered if he was offered the Barca job.

If Barca absolutely collapsed in CL and La Liga, he might be a leading candidate. Luis Enrique was hired after a fairly indifferent season at Celta (and having previously underwhelmed at Roma) because of his history with Barca...seems to be one of the primary qualifications for the job now, heh.
 
Anyway, all the speculators can go home. Ronald says he honours his contracts** if he isn't sacked beforehand and Saints aren't going to sack him. So he's staying until the end of next season, at least.

**tbf, I've not checked that. Must do that when I'm bored enough.

Remember when a few fans wanted to sack Ron in January...it seems like a distant memory now

He left PSV in October of 2007 to manage Valencia:

"When Valencia expressed an interest in Ronald Koeman, we asked: 'Can't this wait until next year?'" the PSV general director, Jan Reker, said last night. Koeman has taken his assistant, Tonny Bruins Slot, with him to Spain.

Reker said. "Ronald has always said he dreamt of coaching a top club in Spain. We respect that. This is a dream club for him and they didn't want to wait.

"It's a shame for PSV, but for Ronald it's the ultimate challenge," Reker added.
 

So he's happy again. Frankly, I very much doubt whether he was properly unhappy. Bearing in mind that, in football terms, if you are slightly disappointed, you're absolutely gutted. And if you are in a slightly positive frame of mind, you're over the moon.

So, in the words of so many football supporters, I was gutted when I heard he was unhappy, but I'm over the moon now that I know he's fine. Excuse me while I reach for the sick bag. :rolleyes:

Never though he was unhappy. As a player, he wants to play all the time and at his stage of development he may be concerned that he isn't a regular starter, but considering his future never made him the unhappy player angry with RK that the article suggested.
