Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman will continue to walk a tightrope after the international.

Following defeat at Atletico Madrid on Saturday, Koeman received support of Barca president Joan Laporta, insisting his job is safe.

However, local journalist Matteo Moretto reports the Dutchman could still be shown the door this month if results fail to improve.

Barca will resume the LaLiga against Valencia before meeting Dynamo Moscow in the Champions League. Then beyond those two games, Barca face Real Madrid for the first time this season.

Atletico was Barca's first defeat in the LaLiga, though they have lost both their Champions League games so far.
