Former Barcelona and Real Madrid striker Javier Saviola has been named to Barca's academy coaching staff.

The Argentine has been named assistant coach to Oscar Lopez with the Juvenil A squad.

For the former striker it is the third spell with the Blaugrana, after the two as a player (between 2001 and 2004 and later in the 2006/07 season).

Saviola follows former teammate Rafa Marquez in returning to Barca this summer.

Marquez has replaced Sergi Barjuan as Barca Atletic coach.
