New Barcelona coach
Hansi Flick to go from “executioner” to “savior”
Hansi Flick was presented as the new Barcelona coach on Wednesday. The Spanish press is largely celebrating the appointment of the German, who is set to go from "executioner" to "savior" ...
"From executioner to savior: In 2020, Hansi Flick was the strategist who led Bayern to inflict a still painful 8-2 defeat on Barca. Now, almost four years later, he is sitting on the Barca bench as Xavi's replacement and is being called the new savior," writes "El Mundo", among others.
According to "Marca", club president Joan Laporta is seeing "one of his wishes come true". He had always been in favor of "going the German way" and had already wanted to bring Julian Nagelsmann, Thomas Tuchel and Jürgen Klopp to Barcelona. Now he has done it with Hansi Flick.
"Mundo Deportivo" points out that Flick will have to "adapt his ambitions to his possibilities" because Barca will probably not be able to make any expensive transfers due to the tight financial situation.
"Great honor" for Flick
Flick himself spoke on Wednesday of "a great honor" and a "dream to work for this wonderful club. The philosophy they have is similar to mine. Ball possession and attacking soccer - these are the things I love." According to Spanish media reports, the 59-year-old will not be officially presented until the beginning of next week at the earliest.
