Hansi Flick won three titles with FC Barcelona. The success story should go on.
The dream marriage goes into the extension: Ex national coach Hansi Flick has extended his contract at FC Barcelona a year by 2027. The Spanish champion announced on Wednesday. Flick led Barça to the national triple from Supercopa, Cup and championship in his premiere season.
“We are like a family. Everyone in the club does a fantastic job, with passion. Everyone is taking care of each other, which is unique,” said Flick after the championship’s early win in the previous week. Club president Joan Laporta then announced on the Catalan radio, which, according to the Spanish media, has been considered a decided thing for a long time: “We have long been agreement, he will continue.”
Flick had taken over the coaching position in Barcelona last summer when the club was on the ground. After a Titellos season, the former coach of FC Bayern was supposed to breathe new life into the sporting pride of Catalonia – and did it in a brilliant way.
In January, winning the Spanish super cup was achieved by a spectacular 5: 2 in the final against Real Madrid. Also in the final of the Copa Del Rey, Barça kept the upper hand in April 3-2 against the archrival. And last but not least, it was the early win of the championship title and the replacement of Real in this competition, which is already a small monument in Barcelona.
Born in Heidelberg, the love of the Catalan fans did not just win with the great triumphs. The attractive and offensive playing style and dealing with stars like Lamine Yamal are well received in Barcelona. Even the unfortunate end in the semi -finals of the Champions League after an epic duel with Inter Milan (6: 7) could not harm Flicks.
