Barcelona has just finished its last match in La Liga which was played at Sevilla headquarters with a 2-1 win. This match marked Xavi farewell to Barcelona after an internal conflict occurred with club officials. Hansi Flick who was appointed to replace Xavi, has approved all the documents for a two year contract as the new head coach at Barcelona, he will lead Barcelona journey in competition in several different competitions next season.
Xavi has left a valuable legacy during his two years as Barcelona coach, he managed to make several names from La Masia famous such as Yamal, Fermin Lopez, Cubarsi, Marc Guiu and Hector Fort. It is hoped that Hansi Flick can develop their abilities to become Barcelona future assets. He can combine players from different generations to improve Barcelona performance. His ability and experience with Bayern Munich can have a positive effect on Barcelona amidst their financial decline to win again the title they failed to achieve this season.
That is a challenge for Flick when he is at Camp Nou, he must be able to make Barcelona again able to compete with Real Madrid and also in the Champions League. Yes, Xavi has succeeded in giving his best for El Barca and he has also been able to launch La Masia products in the first team, Flick must understand that and can even make them continue to have a regular place. Apart from that, in the midst of financial conditions that are not good, the man from Germany must also be able to manage the assets currently available. I certainly hope to be able to make the Blaugrana rise again and make competition in La Liga even more competitive next season. Hopefully Flick will be successful and find a place in the hearts of fans.
Hansi Flick inherited a lame squad from Xavi Hernandez, but that doesn't mean the Barcelona squad is currently in big trouble, there are several positions that Hansi Flick must pay attention to to cover the shortcomings in the Barcelona squad. Young players who have just developed will really help Hansi Flick in forming a new strength in the Barcelona squad, they will get regular playing time due to their ability and still very strong energy.
Maybe Flick will ask the club management to bring in several players to make it easier for him to continue the project that Xavi failed to handle. Barcelona's finances are currently in decline, meaning management has to find a way to fulfill the coach's wishes. Selling several players is a solution to increase the club's finances, De Jong and Araujo can be included in the sales list because these two players have high value.
