Official Announcement Date for Flick's Contract Renewal with Barcelona
Spanish newspaper 'Mundo Deportivo' reported that FC Barcelona will officially announce next Wednesday the renewal of its German coach Hans Flick's contract until the summer of 2027, following a final agreement reached after the Clasico match against Real Madrid on May 11.
Flick, who led Barcelona to achieve the domestic treble in his first season ('La Liga', 'Copa del Rey', 'Spanish Super Cup'), had a contract that extended until June 2026, but the management decided to reward him with an additional one-season extension.
The crucial meeting took place between Flick, his agent, and the club president Joan Laporta at a famous restaurant in Barcelona, during which all the details of the new contract were finalized. The renewal is expected to be announced through an official statement without holding a press conference, and the club will publish exclusive statements and photos of the coach through its media platforms.
It is noteworthy that Flick rejected the addition of a third optional season in the new contract, preferring to settle for a contract until 2027, with the future relationship between the two parties to be evaluated at its end, as the German coach always prefers short-term contracts.
