Flick, following his dismissal from Germany in September 2023, will be tasked with reviving Barcelona’s fortunes.
: Barcelona have appointed former German national team and Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick as head coach on a two-year contract, the LaLiga club said on Wednesday.
In a statement, the club said it had “chosen a man well known for his teams’ high pressing, intense and daring style of play which has brought him great success at club level and international level, winning pretty much all there is to win in the world of football”. Xavi was sacked last week after a trophy-less season in which Barca finished 10 points behind champions Real Madrid, lost the Spanish Super Cup final to their arch-rivals and were knocked out of the Champions League by Paris St Germain in the last eight.The German filling Xavi’s shoes faces a tough challenge ahead with fixing Barca’s on-field struggles amid turmoil off the pitch, including deepening financial problems and a refereeing scandal that could drag on for years.
