I can’t help but think Barcelona might be my last coaching gig. At 60, after a few years here, I’m ready to step back, live my life, and ditch the stress. Sure, others have lasted longer in this game, but I feel I’ve done my part. The real question that haunts me is: Did I make the most of my time? It hit me when I won it all with Bayern—did I really need to wait so long for that joy, or was I always meant for it? Back in 2005 at Hoffenheim,I doubted I was ready to lead,so I spent years as an assistant. Even after a World Cup win with the national team, I held back—until Bayern gave me the reins, and I conquered everything. Now, as I’m thriving at Barça, I wonder if I betrayed my own legacy by taking too long. Could I have tasted success—and more happiness,sooner?Then again, maybe this journey shaped me. If I’d rushed in, I might’ve failed. Funny thing is, I might second-guess this choice too someday. But perhaps, at the end, I’ll see it didn’t matter—the path I took made me who I am. 1 reply
