Flick’s two favourite players leave for Real Madrid

Barcelona is currently experiencing a tense environment as Joan Laporta steers the club in a direction that clearly concerns fans. This situation is becoming apparent to Hansi Flick, who, despite his initial enthusiasm upon joining Barcelona, is beginning to realize the challenges he faces in pursuing titles with the team.

According to Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, Flick requested two players from Germany, whom he knows well from his time at Bayern Munich, to enhance Barcelona’s full-back positions. The two players in question, Alphonso Davies and Jérémie Frimpong, were targets for Flick but both requests were denied.

Davies is set on joining Real Madrid by 2025 at the latest, while Frimpong prefers to stay at Bayer Leverkusen for another year, hoping for an offer from Real Madrid, as he dreams of playing alongside Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior at the Santiago Bernabéu. The report also mentions that Flick reached out to Davies, but the player’s salary led Laporta to reject the proposal, frustrating Flick who feels that achieving success at Barcelona under these circumstances will be challenging. Despite this, Flick remains committed, stating that he will focus on what can be controlled and is prepared to deal with the aspects beyond his control.
