The new coach will be announced in the coming days as part of a wide ranging restructuring of the first team.
Setien, 61, coached Barcelona since January this year and led it to the second place in the Spanish championship. Last week, Barcelona lost 2-8 to Bayern in the Champions League quarterfinals and dropped out of the tournament.
Ronald Koeman is believed to be the most likely candidate to replace him.
