Cubarsí and Martín: Only two players avoided injuries under Flick at FC Barcelona

Only two players have managed to avoid missing matches for FC Barcelona due to injury since Hans Flick took charge of the team, despite having been under his supervision for at least two full seasons.

According to the Spanish newspaper "Sport", Pau Cubarsí and Gerard Martín are the only two of 23 players to achieve this feat, having played 117 matches and 107 matches respectively without missing due to injury.

Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny joins the squad technically, having not suffered an injury since arriving in January 2024, but he has only participated in 43 matches and missed one encounter due to gastroenteritis accompanied by flu-like symptoms.

In the current season, Lamine Yamal, Pedri, and Fermín López have maintained their readiness, alongside 12 other players, while FC Barcelona is missing five players due to injury: Rony, Rodri, Dani Olmo, Xavi Espart, and Jules Koundé.

On the other hand, Andreas Christensen has suffered the most, having been absent from the pitch for 433 days, highlighting the challenge of reducing injuries for Flick, amid a congested fixture schedule and competition for all titles.
