Barcelona sack sporting director, Eric Abidal

 

Eric Abidal spent two years as Barcelona sporting director




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

Abidal, a former Barcelona defender and two-times Champions League winner with the club, had been in the role for over two years.

Setien was relieved of his duties in the wake of Friday's embarrassing 8-2 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-finals, with Barcelona warning of a "broad restructuring of the first-team".

A statement on the club’s official website reads: “FC Barcelona and Eric Abidal have reached an agreement for the termination of the contract binding both parties.

“The club publicly expresses its gratitude to Eric Abidal for the professionalism, commitment, dedication and positive and close treatment towards all the areas that make up the Barca family, and wishes him luck and success in the future.”
