Senior players at Spanish side Barcelona have reportedly kicked against the choice of the club's chiefs appointing former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino as their new coach. There have been reports that Barcelona chiefs are considering sacking current handler Quique Setien because of their embarrassing defeat against Bayern Munich in the Champions League. Barcelona suffered their heaviest defeat ever in their history against the German side in which the likes of Lionel Messi and Suarez failed to impress. And Setien is believed to be the first man who would leave the Nou Camp this summer so as for a new gaffer to come in.

Spurs' chiefs wanted the Argentine coach to win the Champions League which the club failed to lift. Previously, it was claimed that Pochettino stated that he would rather take up a job at working at a farm rather than becoming Barcelona manager. And according to the report on UK Sun, that statement is about to haunt him as Barcelona stars are not ready to be under him. Senior players like Lionel Messi, who have a huge influence on decisions at the club, refuse to bury the hatchet. Even important figures behind the scenes are encouraging president Josep Bartomeu to look elsewhere. The Catalans have also been linked with former player and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry to become next manager at Barcelona.
