Mundo Deportivo newspaper revealed that Hansi Flick met with former Manchester City and Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola to ask him about the atmosphere in the Catalan club.
The German coach is considered a great candidate to coach Barcelona, and he very much welcomes the position after the difficult experience he lived with the German national team, which caused him to lose his luster.
According to the newspaper, Flick was in Denmark to watch the match between Manchester City and Copenhagen in the Champions League, then returned to England and met Guardiola.
Flick attended City’s training and they exchanged conversations, and Barcelona was the focus of this conversation. The former Bayern coach wanted to know how things were going in the Catalan club and matters like this.
Flick’s meetings about Barcelona were not limited to Guardiola, but he also met with the philosopher’s assistant, Dominique Torrent, who also worked at Barcelona and Bayern Munich, along with the current City coach.
Perhaps these steps confirm that Flick is closer than ever to working in Barcelona, or that he is at least finding great interest from Joan Laporta’s management in him.
