On Wednesday, Barcelona confirmed the news that Hansi Flick had signed a new contract – extended his stay until 2027 in the process. The 60-year-old has delighted supporters since he arrives last summer, and given that he led the Catalans to a domestic Treble this season, it was a no-brainer for him to extend his stay.
According to Marca, Flick spoke with the official media channels of Barcelona in the minutes after his new contract was announced. He made it clear that he is pleased to expand his stay in Catalonia, while also looking ahead to the 2025-26 campaign, which starts in August.
“I am happy because this journey continues. I feel that we are not at the end of the road and that this team has potential. They are a young team that has earned everything we have achieved this season and I am very happy to work with them. I like to be in Barcelona and work at this great club and of course with all these players. Because we have a very good relationship.
“Now we are starting a new season and we have to work hard because we start all over again. I also know that we have to improve and we will do that. I want to tell the fans that we will work hard next season and try everything. We want to improve more titles. This is Barça, it is necessary to win titles.”
Joan Laporta, president of Barcelona, who was present when Flick signed his new contract, also spoke about this issue. In a post on X he sent a message to the German in which he expressed his joy.
“Hansi, thanks for continuing to increase the history of Barça, the best club in the world. Barça fans love you and trust that you will continue to guide our players to victory!”
