Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde has admitted he is unsure whether he will be coaching a team next season.

The 54-year-old did a domestic double in his first season, winning La Liga and Copa Del Rey. Halfway through his second season, Barcelona are on top of the La Liga table and through to the last 16 of Copa Del Rey and Champions League.

“Next season? I do not know my future or what I will be doing at that stage,” Valverde told Barcelona TV.

“In football you never know what will happen, things are fluid and you can never allow yourself to think in the long term.

“When you are in this business, two months is a very long time. Thoughts and feelings change on individual results – if you win things are great, if you lose everyone is sad and talking about you.

“I want everyone to be happy with my work and the work of my staff and my players, but in football there are no guarantees.

“If we do not meet our objectives – domestically and in Europe – people will look at the coach, it is the way things are.”
