Carlos Padrao, a former goalkeeper and close friend of Georgy Jesus, revealed that the Portuguese coach had a prior agreement to oversee the training of FC Barcelona.
On Tuesday, the Catalan Mundo Deportivo newspaper quoted Padrao, who said that the former coach of Benfica and Sporting Lisbon and the Saudi Hilal had signed a contract earlier with Juan Laporta who lost Barcelona's presidency in the last elections, and Jesus was to be appointed Coach of the Catalan team if Laporta wins the club presidency.
Josep Maria Bartomeo retained the Spanish club’s presidency until 2021 at the expense of former President Juan Laporta in the elections that took place in 2015, and when Laporta won, Jesus was to take over as coach of Luis Enrique, according to his friend’s statements, after the trio that Barcelona had achieved at that time, , League, Cup, and UEFA Champions League, especially since Laporta has a strong relationship with the Portuguese coach.
The friend of the current coach of the Brazilian Flamingo explained that Jesus could coach Brazil in the coming period, and he said: He spoke with Jesus, a week ago, I sent him a congratulatory message after renewing his contract with Flamingo, we talked for an hour, now he is in one of the largest clubs in the world, He is ready to coach the Brazilian national team.
Badrao added: If he could not coach Brazil as the first foreign coach, this would be better than supervising Real Madrid or Barcelona.
Several press reports indicated last week that there are negotiations between Barcelona and the Portuguese coach in order to take over the technical responsibility to succeed the current coach Kiki Citin.
