Hansi Flick spoke on Sunday about countless topics for the match between Barcelona and Real Sociedad, and one of them was Wojciech Szczesny, who has settled as a starting goalkeeper in recent months.
Szczesny is only contracted until the end of the season, after he had signed a deal for a year for his earlier in the campaign. However, there are reports that he can be continued for at least 12 months, especially since there is further speculation that Inaki Pena, who would be the backup of Marc-Andre Ter Stegen, could leave in the summer.
Flick was asked about this during his press conference for the competition, and while he refused to be drawn to the question of whether Szczesny gets the chance to stay, he stated that he is satisfied with the Polish goalkeeper, according to MD.
“I have not offered any player, it is the work of Deco and the club. We are happy with him, but it is the work of Deco. We are happy with him, that's all I can say. “
Flick also spoke about the debate he has in the defensive midfield, where he chooses between Frenkie de Jong and Marc Casado.
“It's a difficult question. Frenkie has improved a lot this month. Casadó is more defensive and more focused on defense. With Frenkie we can have more possession and be more offensive. Casadó is a young player and he can improve, but in his first season he is doing very well and can be proud of what he has achieved. “
Just like Szczesny and De Jong, Ronald Araujo is another player who had to wait until 2025 to become a starter, and Flick has also spoken with the Uruguayan defender.
“I am very happy with the situation, because we need four good players in this position. Ronald arrived with an injury, but he is doing well. He is a leader. “
