As reported earlier this week, FC Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has requested three new signings for the summer of 2026. The German tactician wants the Catalans to bring in a new centre-forward, a new left-footed centre-back, as well as a winger before the start of the next season. Targets for each position have also been identified, with Bundesliga-based stars like Harry Kane, Serhou Guirassy, and Nico Schlotterbeck, among others, on the club's radars.

Marc Casado was one of the breakthrough stars for FC Barcelona last season, grabbing the opportunity that came his way under Hansi Flick with both hands. Having been close to leaving the club at one point, the La Masia graduate became a mainstay in the team and ended the 2024/25 term with 2447 minutes across 36 games in all competitions, even chipping in with a goal and six assists.

On a cold night at Stamford Bridge they were soundly beaten, 3-0, on a night when they had to play the entire second half with ten following Ronald Araujo's red card. Hansi Flick 'positive about the future' - FC Barcelona If Hansi Flick's post-match press conference could be summed up in a single line, it would be this: "We have to accept the defeat and stay positive about what comes next."

Zahavi, who lives in London, took advantage of his proximity to stop by the hotel and greet his client. The meeting with Flick was cordial and brief, held in the calm atmosphere typical of the hours before a European fixture. The Israeli agent arrived with two of his regular collaborators, Max Bielefeld and Humberto Paiva, who accompanied him throughout the visit.

It's a big week, but at the end of this week, we have another big week. Every game is important. Of course, Barcelona and Arsenal are important for different reasons, and we are ready.

"I want Camp Nou to be a sacred temple where we can share many memories with 105,000 fans when it's finished. Flick has told me he wants to see it, and I've told him he'll see it because he's very well established here,"

Frenkie de Jong will not be available after picking up two yellow cards in the clash with Celta Vigo, forcing him to serve his suspension tomorrow. To add to that, Pedri is still not fit enough to feature, leaving Flick with a familiar dilemma. It is a situation the German coach has already experienced before, almost identical, in fact, to the one he faced during his early days at the club.

According to Diario SPORT, Xavi Espart has been ruled out for at least two months after picking up a fresh injury. Initial examinations indicate the problem is located in his right knee. The medical staff is being highly cautious before issuing a definitive diagnosis, as there is a serious possibility that a ligament may be affected. The injury is a significant blow not just to the player, but to the club's strategy for the coming weeks.

The Camp Nou works are progressing at a very good pace. If there are no surprises, the third tiers will be operational at the start of next season, just like the VIP boxes, which are of great importance in refinancing the stadium. We'll play in the Camp Nou as soon as possible. The stadium is ready to play with a 27,000 capacity. Hansi Flick had chills when he entered the new Camp Nou. The players were freaking out too.

Say what you like about Hansi Flick, but the first-team head coach isn't for turning. Win, lose or draw, he clearly won't have his Barça side playing any other way than with the high-risk, high-reward high line. As we saw again at Celta, when it doesn't work and the Blaugranes are so easily exposed, it looks amateurish. However, in the second half, there was a clear indication of how well it can contain opposition teams when used correctly.
