Barcelona players play a game of rondo before training, and they punish the players who fail to get the ball. Koeman revealed that if the ball went around 20 times, the player in the middle would have to take an extra turn. If they failed three times, they would get hit in the head by their teammates.
When Messi was asked if he was punished, the Argentine told Koeman it happened once. According to the Dutchman, Messi stayed angry for a week because he failed to get the ball.
Messi joined PSG in the summer for free after Barcelona’s financial problems meant they were unable to sign him to a new deal.
Ronald Koeman feeling the pressure at Barcelona
Ronald Koeman is under pressure at Barcelona following a string of poor results. The Catalans have won just two of their four league matches and were thumped by Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener. However, Koeman does not want anyone to feel sorry for him, claiming it’s common in Spain for managers to take the blame.
