The New Neymar is Appealing, but Hansi Flick Cancels Transfer: Not at Barça Level
The German Coach is Clear About His Goals, and One Promising Player Has Been Excluded
Hansi Flick took charge at Barcelona a few months ago, and since then, the club has undergone significant changes. The German coach was well aware of the club’s situation, but he chose to adapt and do everything in his power to restore the team to its former glory. As time goes on, it’s becoming clear that Flick is the coach that Barça fans, known as the Culles, have longed for, with many believing that more success is on the horizon.
Barcelona has had to make several adjustments to accommodate Flick, who has always been clear about his intentions. It is well-known that the German coach has made it clear that he would not accept Neymar’s return simply because of his history with the club. Now, in a surprising revelation, it has come to light that Flick will not accept the new version of Neymar either.
Hansi Flick and His Demands
Hansi Flick is widely regarded as one of the top coaches in world football today, with his six-year tenure at Bayern Munich solidifying his reputation. During his time at Bayern, he coached some of the best players in the world, many of whom are now highly sought-after transfer targets. Barcelona, aware of their current situation, is eager to enter the market soon.
Several former players under Flick’s guidance, like Joshua Kimmich, have caught the attention of Barcelona’s leadership. However, due to the club’s financial constraints, they are unable to make large investments. As a result, President Joan Laporta has been forced to find alternatives, focusing on options that come at little to no cost.
The most significant recent transfer has been Dani Olmo, for whom Barça is expected to pay around 60 million euros. Currently, there is a potential opportunity to sign the “new Neymar,” but it appears that Hansi Flick is not convinced. This Brazilian talent was initially scouted by Barcelona back in 2022, but the deal never materialized.
Hansi Flick’s Decision
Hansi Flick has made it clear what type of players he wants in his squad and what his priorities are. Back in 2022, Barcelona opted for Raphinha over Luiz Henrique, the 23-year-old Botafogo star. Although Henrique caught the attention of the Catalan club, they chose to save approximately 16 million euros instead.
This season, Luiz Henrique has impressed, scoring 12 goals and providing 6 assists. Despite his strong performances, it appears that Hansi Flick is not keen on adding him to his squad. While nothing is certain, it seems increasingly unlikely that Henrique will make his way to La Liga with Barcelona.
