Ronald Koeman landed at the El Prat airport's private flight terminal at around 17:00 on Tuesday. The man who is still officially the Netherlands' national team coach arrived in Barcelona to complete the contract that will make him manager of FC Barcelona for the next two seasons.

Koeman's Camp Nou arrival

Last night, Abidal - who has since left the club - met with Òscar Grau, CEO of FC Barcelona, in Amsterdam to start finalising his contract.

It is expected that in the next few hours, Barcelona will make his incorporation official and he will then be presented in the coming days.

Although there was an exclusive free release clause for Koeman to join Barça, the pandemic has added millions to the cost.
