Flick Wants To Renew At FC Barcelona And Remains Best Coach For The Job

FC Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick wants to stay at the club and remains the best man for the job. Europa Press via Getty Images At his prematch press conference on Tuesady, Hansi Flick revealed that he wishes to stay at FC Barcelona. Though an expected contract extension for mid-2028 expiry is yet to be signed, Flick “wants the Champions League and to stay until the stadium is finished”.

In its current state, the Spotify Camp Nou holds 62,000 punters and will be completed in 2027 according to Mundo Deportivo . As we also know, Flick has fallen short in Europe twice now. First in the semifinals to Inter Milan last term, and then as recent as a week ago in the quarterfinals, where Atletico Madrid administered a painful aggregate defeat in the Metropolitano despite the Blagurana winning 2-1 on the night.

Flick is the best man for the FC Barcelona job Yet despite his continental shortcomings, Flick remains the right man for the job. Previously, from 2019 to 2023, the Catalans went four years without winning La Liga until Xavi Hernandez put that right. The 2023/2024 season was trophyless and spelled the end for Xavi alongside publicly claiming that the Blaugrana couldn’t compete with Real Madrid financially.

With pretty much the same squad, however, Flick swept a domestic treble in his first term. In 2025/2026, we won’t see that happen again. Yet with a nine-point advantage, it’s highly likely that the Spanish top flight crown remains in Catalonia for the second year running while joining another Super Cup in the cabinet.
