After assuming control of Barcelona on Wednesday, Hansi Flick—formerly of Bayern Munich—made it clear that he has an untouchable player. Following Xavi Hernandez’s dismissal last week by the Spanish club owners, Hansi Flick was appointed as the next coach of Barcelona on a two-year contract.
Hansi Flick says this player is invincible in Barcelona
The German club fired the 59-year-old in 2023. Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga, German Cup, and Champions League in 2020 under Flick’s guidance, taking them to the next level. Here I am signing my contract, which is a huge honour and a lifelong desire,” Flick stated on Wednesday.
My drive for titles is enormous, so we won a few with Bayern Munich. According to Flick, Frenkie de Jong is an untouchable player for Barcelona. He made the announcement as the transfer season began.Speculation has circulated that Erik ten Hag, the new manager at Manchester United, wants De Jong, who has been with the Spanish club since 2019, to rejoin his squad.
Hence, many have speculated that Barça’s financial woes have led to De Jong’s transfer to Catalunya. But Flick, Barça’s German manager, is opposed to the move. As reported by Sportbible, the 27-year-old saw action in 30 games this season across all competitions, with 20 of those games coming in La Liga.
