Barcelona have decided to part company with coach Tata Martino at the end of the season.
It has been reported in the Catalan press since Christmas that Martino had informed friends he intended to leave the job at the end of the current campaign.
And Sport says today Barca's board have now decided to pull the plug on Martino's stay 12 months into his two-year contract.
The Argentine's deal carries a termination clause and all signs are that it will be mutually agreed to split once the season wraps up.
Meanwhile, an early candidate to succeed Martino is Borussia Dortmundcoach Jurgen Klopp.
The German has impressed Barca's board - though his branding of their 'tiki-taka' playing style as "boring" may leave hardline supporters unimpressed.
