Hansi Flick makes huge midfield decisions

Hansi Flick now knows what his ideal midfield looks like.

At a club like FC Barcelona, significant adjustments throughout a season are almost inevitable. The relentless football calendar demands that elite teams thoroughly evaluate their squad depth.

For Hansi Flick, this process at Barcelona has required time and patience.

With a limited budget due to the club’s cautious financial strategy, Flick has been compelled to maximize the resources at his disposal.

However, his experiments and squad rotations have finally yielded valuable insights, particularly regarding his ideal midfield setup.

As per SPORT, Flick’s preferred trio features Pedri and Marc Casadó as the defensive midfield anchors, with Dani Olmo operating further upfield. Olmo, a summer acquisition, has been instrumental in creating chances and providing a goal-scoring threat.

His positional intelligence and technical skills have made him indispensable, making him La Liga’s top-scoring midfielder across competitions.

While rotation remains essential, Flick’s newfound clarity on his strongest midfield combination could be key to Barcelona’s success.
