Hansi Flick has expressed his deep commitment to FC Barcelona, stating he wants to remain as head coach when the iconic Camp Nou (Spotify Camp Nou) is fully completed. The German tactician also addressed his contract situation, emphasizing that renewal talks can wait amid the team\u2019s important objectives.<\/p>\n
In recent comments, Hansi Flick shared his ambition to coach Barcelona once the ambitious stadium renovation project reaches completion.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to be the Barcelona coach when the stadium is fully completed,\u201d Flick said.<\/p>\n
This statement highlights his long-term attachment to the club and the historic venue. The Spotify Camp Nou redevelopment, one of the most significant infrastructure projects in world football, is progressing in phases. While partial reopening has already increased capacity significantly in 2026, full completion\u2014including the retractable roof and all premium facilities\u2014is expected around late 2027 or into 2028.<\/p>\n
Flick\u2019s desire to be on the sidelines for the grand return underscores the special bond he has built with the club and its fans since taking over as head coach.<\/p>\n
On the topic of his future contract, Flick adopted a focused and professional tone:<\/p>\n
\u201cI would like to renew the contract but it\u2019s not the time to talk about it now. We have important things.\u201d<\/p>\n
His current deal runs until June 2027, but recent reports indicate a verbal agreement has been reached for a one-year extension until 2028, with Barcelona open to even longer terms (potentially including performance-based options). Club president Joan Laporta has publicly confirmed the club\u2019s intention to extend Flick\u2019s stay, praising the coach\u2019s impact and happiness at the club.<\/p>\n
Flick has also described Barcelona as his \u201clast job\u201d in football, signaling strong personal commitment and ruling out moves elsewhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
