'I don't see ANY problems between the players': Ronald Koeman denies rumours of squad unrest at Barcelona and insists there's a 'great atmosphere' despite poor start to LaLiga campaign

Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman has denied suggestions about problems between players behind the scenes at the club.

Reports in Spain earlier this week claimed the Camp Nou dressing room was split over the Dutchman's behaviour towards midfielder Riqui Puig.

Claims in Spanish outlet El Pais alleged that Koeman accused the 21-year-old of leaking information in front of the entire squad, but the former Everton and Southampton boss insists there is unity rather than disharmony among the squad.
