The Dutchman broke down in the dressing room after being removed from the Camp Nou dugout over a decade ago, according to one of his ex-players

Former Barcelona defender Philippe Christanval said Louis van Gaal "cried like a baby" when he was sacked by the Catalans, a decision that "destroyed" him.

Van Gaal, whose tenure at Manchester United come to an end after last season, was fired by the Camp Nou side in January 2003.


Christanval - a centre-back for Barca at the time - revealed the Dutchman broke down when giving the players the news.

"He came into the dressing room after hearing the news, started to talk, and all of a sudden began crying like a baby," Christanval told SRF.

"He was really hurt. It impacted me seeing him cry. He was a hard, cold person - and here he was destroyed."
