Sergio Busquets, 37 years old, is close to starting a new stage at Barcelona. According to Sport, the former midfielder is in talks with the club to join the coaching staff of Barça Atlètic as an assistant to Juliano Belletti, a move that could be finalized during this pre-season. 

The return of Sergio Busquets would not be as a player, but with the aim of beginning his career as a coach. The former Spanish international has been seen at the Joan Gamper Sports City holding meetings with officials of the Blaugrana entity to define what his role would be within the sports structure. 

Sergio Busquets wants to start as a coach at Barça Atlètic

Sergio Busquets' intention is to gain experience from the grassroots before making the leap to a professional bench. The plan being studied by Barcelona involves his incorporation into the coaching staff of the reserve team, where he would work alongside Juliano Belletti, recently renewed as coach of Barça Atlètic until 2027. 

Although he does not yet have all the necessary licenses to work as a head coach, the former Barcelona captain believes that the reserve team represents the ideal environment to start his training. His knowledge of the club's playing model and his trajectory at La Masia fit the profile that the entity is looking for to support the development of young footballers. 

Barcelona is considering the return of one of its legends

The potential return of Sergio Busquets would reinforce Barcelona's commitment to integrating former players into its sports structure. In recent years, the club has already had former footballers like Belletti in the youth system, a path that the sports management maintains to preserve the football identity of La Masia. 

Busquets played more than 700 matches with the Blaugrana first team before heading to American soccer. During his time at the club, he won, among other titles, 9 Leagues and 3 Champions Leagues, in addition to becoming a key piece of the World Cup and European Championship-winning Spanish national team.

The former captain also has the support of the sports management for his ability to convey tactical concepts to young players. This experience is one of the reasons explaining Barcelona's interest in incorporating him into their technical structure as soon as possible, even if he does not initially hold a position of maximum responsibility. 

The return of Sergio Busquets could be finalized in the coming days

The discussions are ongoing, and the next step will be to define the functions that Sergio Busquets would assume within Belletti's coaching staff. If both parties reach a definitive agreement during the pre-season, the former midfielder's return to Barcelona would take place immediately to begin his coaching career alongside Barça Atlètic.
