Barcelona midfielder Pjanic: Koeman disrespectful

Barcelona midfielder Miralem Pjanic has taken aim at former coach Ronald Koeman.

Pjanic fell out with Koeman last summer and is currently on-loan this season with Besiktas.

On Koeman, he said: "I couldn't continue with him. His way of doing things was disrespectful.

"(Joan) Laporta made a great decision with Xavi: now the group is united and everyone knows what they have to do."

On Barca's young players, Pjanic also told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "Gavi. As soon as I saw him, I said: 'This guy knows football'."
