The once global football brand, FC Barcelona is fast crumbling. At the moment, the tension at the club  is reportedly  so thick it can be cut with a knife.

According to Spanish media outlet CAT Radio, president Joan Laporta and Coach Ronald Koeman no longer see eye to eye. It is claimed they don't even speak to each other anymore.

Laporta has backed Koeman in recent weeks despite poor results against Bayern Munich  and Granada. However, the defeat to Benfica left the president reeling. .

From what it seems, Koeman is set to get the axe unless he can miraculously turn a corner with the difficult clash against Atletico  on the horizon.
