Koeman tells Riqui Puig how he can improve at Barcelona

Riqui Puig has been offered some advice by manager Ronald Koeman regarding how he can improve his game at Barcelona.

The 21-year-old is struggling for game time this season and has only managed three minutes of action so far as a late substitute in the defeat to Getafe.

Koeman has given an interview to L’Esportiu where he’s offered his thoughts on the youngster: “He needs to improve in many ways. The rhythm of the ball, his physique, competing...”

Puig’s physique is a topic that has often come up in the past but it certainly hasn’t seemed an issue on the rare chances he has had in the first team.
