Despite the rumors of the last few hours, which announced that the ex-defender of OL would remain in his post temporarily, the rupture finally took place. Appointed in June 2018, Abidal therefore left Barça after a little over two years punctuated by highs and (many) lows. The last one will have been fatal to him.
