Initially, Sergi Dominguez was not included in Hansi Flick’s summer plans, but he was eventually called up during the preseason to help make up the numbers.
However, Dominguez quickly grabbed Flick’s interest, as reported by Sport. Standing at 190cm (6’2), he possesses an uncommon height for a La Masia graduate, but his ball-handling abilities have notably progressed.
On Saturday, Dominguez made a significant contribution to initiating an attack against Manchester City that led to a goal. He repeated this feat by delivering a precise pass from defense to assist Raphinha in scoring.
Flick admires Dominguez’s effectiveness, strong tackling ability, trustworthiness, and excellent positioning on the field.
Flick commented that Sergi earned his spot due to his impressive performance during the preseason and his notable progress.
After spending his formative years in the Barcelona academy, the local player has been linked to the club for almost ten years.
