Sergio Busquets returns to FC Barcelona in a new coaching role after ending his playing career. Barcelona has officially confirmed that the former midfielder joins the club’s reserve team, Barça Atlètic, as an assistant coach.
The outlets agree that Busquets takes up the position alongside the reserve side’s existing coaching structure, focusing on player development within the club. They also note his long association with Barcelona as a player, including a lengthy first-team career with a large number of appearances. The reports do not present conflicting details about the role’s nature or where it is based; both describe the appointment as specifically tied to the reserve team.
While the sources differ slightly in emphasis—one frames the news as a confirmed return and the other highlights the size of his playing career—both convey the same core information: Barcelona brings Busquets back in a staff capacity for Barça Atlètic’s coaching team.
