Josep Guardiola announced that he will leave Barcelona at the end of the season. Guardiola’s contract with the Spanish giants is going to expire this summer and this means that he will not extend the deal.

The Spanish manager said that the main reasons for this decision are stress and fatigue. Guardiola who was the Barcelona reserve coach took charge at the first team in 2008. Since then the manager managed to win 13 titles.

He is considered as one of the most talented managers in the World, a man who always tries to be the best. But after so many trophies Guardiola felt that his lost some of his motivation and was afraid not to transmit this to his players.

Barcelona are out of Champions League after losing in the semi-finals against Chelsea. Also in Primera Division they are behind rivals from Real Madrid with only mathematical chances of winning the title. Even if they wont win any title we can not say that it is a disastrous season.

For sure Guardiola will be missed but for the good of football we all want to see him coaching as soon as possible.

Giuseppe Rossi suffered a rupture of anterior cruciate ligament on his right knee last year in October in a game against Real Madrid.

The Italian striker hoped for a return on the field that would help him reach the Italy squad for the European championship. But this week Rossi suffered another rupture on the same ligament.

This is the worst news for Villareal and for Italy as Rossi is a key player for both teams. Now the player will go to US again for investigations and surgery.

The recovery period is believed to be of around 6 months. This means that Rossi will stay out of the field for more than a year and he may not reach the same top level again.

Rossi was one of the best players for Italy in the qualification round and his absence will be miss. With Antonio Cassano also in doubt Italy will have a difficult task in replacing them.
