Sacked Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew looks set to take over the hot seat at Barcelona. The Catalan giants, who trail rivals Real Madrid by three points in La Liga, are said to be keen on appointing the former Charlton boss as soon as possible to bolster their title challenge.
Pardew, known in Spain as El Pards, is a huge celebrity in the country due to his energetic touchline dance moves and his silly face.
However, not everyone believes his appointment would be the right move for Barcelona: former defender and club legend Carles Puyol described Pardew as a "dancing fool", while bookmakers have lowered their odds on Barça playing in next year's Europa League.
