Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde says he has the club's "absolute backing" after Tuesday's 4-0 semi-final defeat to Liverpool saw the club knocked out of the UEFA Champions League.
Valverde told reporters ahead of Sunday's La Liga clash against Getafe that he has spoken to president Josep Maria Bartomeu and has the full support of the club despite the defeat.
"I feel strong, I'm ok and I'm looking forward to taking a step forward, I'm not going to hide behind a wall. I've spoken to the president and I have always felt supported by him and he has given me his absolute backing.
