Barcelona president Joan Laporta insists there's no concerns over drawn-out contract talks with new coaching appointment Pep Guardiola.

Guardiola's agents met with Barca directors last week to close a deal for the Barca B coach, but came away empty-handed. Nevertheless, Laporta has no doubts Guardiola will soon be signed as the club's new first team coach.

"We have talked and there is little needed to close the agreement," said Laporta. "We've guaranteed to him that he will have a team that will allow fans to dream again."
