Thiago Alcantara is expected to return to Barcelona and rejoin Hansi Flick’s coaching staff in January 2025.
The former midfielder worked with Barcelona during the summer but was then forced to return to England to sort out several issues.
Mundo Deportivo are reporting that Thiago had to go back for “tax reasons” but say he will return in the new year and be part of the coaching staff on a full-time basis.
Thiago is also said to be still involved with Barcelona “via video conference” and “has been involved in some decisions” despite not being with the squad right now.
