FC Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick hinted at the club's transfer plans following their penalties defeat to AC Milan in Baltimore. Despite two wins against Manchester City and Real Madrid, Barca couldn't maintain their unbeaten record on the US preseason tour.
Flick praised the young players' quality and improvement during the tour, emphasizing their adaptation to the team's style. He expressed dedication to giving his all for the team and highlighted the positive atmosphere at the club.
Regarding potential transfers, Flick suggested that Barca may not seek another midfielder due to the return of injured players like Pedri and Gavi, who are expected to play key roles in the upcoming season. The emergence of Marc Bernal as a potential successor to Sergio Busquets further solidifies the midfield options.
Reports indicate that Barca has secured an agreement with RB Leipzig for Dani Olmo, adding depth to the attacking midfield and left-wing positions. The signing of Olmo could provide healthy competition for Pedri and Gavi.
Overall, Flick's comments suggest a focus on internal solutions and strategic signings to strengthen the squad for the upcoming season. Barca fans can expect a blend of youth talent and experienced players to drive the team forward in their pursuit of success.
As the preseason tour concludes, Barca's preparations for the new campaign seem promising, with a clear vision for squad development and tactical evolution under Flick's guidance.
