Hansi Flick Confirms Plan to Renew at Barcelona and Demands Precision in Summer Rebuild

His push for targeted signings follows a painful Champions League exit that highlighted leadership and defensive gaps.

Overview

  • Flick, speaking Tuesday before Barcelona face Celta Vigo, said he intends to renew his contract and finish his career at the club.
  • He called winning the Champions League his next goal and said transfer choices must be perfect, warning against what he called stupid decisions.
  • He said the squad needs stronger on‑field voices and cited the loss of defender Iñigo Martínez as evidence that leadership must be rebuilt and taught.
  • He said he speaks with sporting director Deco every day about next season and, while he avoided specifics, reports say a planned sign‑off meeting on targets was postponed until after the league is secured.
  • Club‑linked reporting points to a left‑footed centre‑back and a striker as priorities, and Flick said Roony Bardghji wants more minutes and will discuss his future at season’s end.
