After a few months away from the public, it is reported that Busquets has decided to do just that returned to Barcelona, looking to take up a coaching role in the near future.
According to Carlos Monfort, via Diario Sport, Sergio Busquets has decided to return to Barcelona after attending the 2026 World Cup. He has decided to take steps forward to become a coach soon. Instead of joining Hansi Flick’s coaching staff, is negotiating to join the staff of Juliano Belletti, who coaches Barça Atlètic. With this movement, look learn from everyday work before taking a big step.
Since he has not received the necessary training permit to work as a head coach, Busquets decided not to waste time, and joined La Masia as a studentthe same place where he started his career as a professional soccer player. As a result, he may begin his coaching career in FC Barcelona’s youth team before jumping into any first class group.

Sergio Busquets may be looking at a different coaching route than Xavi Hernandez
With the return of Sergio Busquets to Barcelona, many have already compared him to Xavi Hernández, expecting a possible failure. However, the story of both the legends is completely different. Unlike previous years, the Blaugranas already have a stable sporting career, something Xavi did not get. In addition, his training was very different.

Xavi Hernández trained as a coach, completing his studies and taking his first steps at Al Sadd SC in Qatar. Apart from going through La Masia, he had a lot of confusion, as he won titles but ended up being disqualified. This It is very different from the way Sergio Busquets is reported to want to goas he first wants to learn the day-to-day work in Barcelona’s youth ranks before making the big professional move.
Sergio Busquets seems to have a clear approach to becoming a coach: Taking slow steps to learn the basics properly. Although this does not guarantee success, it allows him to better evaluate his professional decisions before becoming Barcelona’s head coach. However, he seems destined to replace Hansi Flick in the future when he breaks through the youth ranks.
