Sergio Busquets returns to Barcelona as assistant coach
Sergio Busquets, Barcelona legend, has returned to the club as assistant coach of the Barça Atlético, alongside Juliano Belletti.
The news was announced by the Barça Athletic, the reserve team of the club. "Sergio Busquets joins the Barça Atlètic as assistant coach. The Barcelona legend returns to the club and joins the coaching staff of Juliano Belletti while completing his coaching course", they reported.
Why does Busquets return as coach of Barça B?
It seems that Busquets will follow in the footsteps of Guardiola and many other players. He will become a coach and is already taking the necessary courses to do so. For this reason, FC Barcelona offers him an opportunity alongside another sports legend of the institution.
Although the statement also explained that Busquets' incorporation is due to "his experience, knowledge and way of understanding the game", all those attributes "will form part of the coaching staff of Juliano Belletti, with the aim of contributing to the growth and formation of the young players of the blue-and-red subsidiary".
Busquets left the Catalan institution in 2023, when he ended his 15-year career in the midfield to emigrate to Inter Miami, where he concluded his career with the MLS title in 2025. With Inter Miami, he played over 100 games in three seasons. He scored one goal and did what he did best as a player: circulating the team.
In 2025, he attempted 2,563 passes with 89% accuracy, almost eight duels per game, 57 received fouls, 34 committed and only six yellow cards. In attack, he contributed little: 10 successful dribbles throughout the campaign, but he maintained the pace and exit of the champion team of the MLS 2025.
Before arriving in Miami, he marveled at Europe with his 722 games in the blaugrana jersey, with which he achieved 32 titles, distributed in nine leagues, seven Copa del Rey, seven Supercopa de España, three Champions League, three Supercopa de Europa and three World Club Championships. He also had an illustrious career in the Spanish national team, representing it 143 times and winning the 2010 World Cup and the 2012 European Championship.
