Ronald Koeman came out fighting on Friday as the under-fire Barcelona boss said he is 'tired of defending himself', but acknowledged that rumours of his possible sacking are 'true'.
Pressure is growing on Koeman, 58, amid a shocking run of results for Barcelona including their recent 3-0 loss to Benfica in the Champions League.
The former Everton and Southampton boss' position as coach appears untenable, with Sportsmail reporting this week that it is a matter of when, not if he will be axed.
And Koeman did not hold back during a tense press conference on Friday, insisting that he is not ignorant to rumours circulating of his departure from the Nou Camp.
