Barcelona are working on the succession of Xavi Pascual, who will leave the club at the end of the season. According to Mundo Deportivo, Ioannis Sfairopoulos and Paolo Galbiati have joined the list of candidates.

Sfairopoulos, currently free after his stint with Crvena Zvezda, brings major EuroLeague experience from Olympiacos, Maccabi Tel Aviv and Belgrade, including two EuroLeague Finals reached with the Greek club.

Galbiati is a different profile: less international experience, but a strong connection with Xevi Pujol, Barça’s future technical secretary, and an impressive season at Baskonia, highlighted by the Copa del Rey title.
