Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has extended his contract with the Spanish club until June 2027, the team announced on Wednesday. This extension comes after a highly successful season where Flick guided the club to a domestic treble, winning La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup.
Barcelona stated, “Barcelona and Hansi Flick have reached an agreement for the renewal of his contract, which will tie him to the club until 30 June 2027.” The German manager took charge after Xavi Hernandez’s departure, stepping in at a time when the team had ended the previous season without any trophies.
Flick’s arrival marked a turning point for Barcelona. The former Bayern Munich and German national team coach brought new energy and tactics that helped the club achieve impressive results in a short period. In his first year, he delivered all three major domestic titles, a feat that pleased the club’s supporters and management alike.
Under Flick’s leadership, Barcelona not only dominated in Spain but also performed well in Europe. The team reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League but were narrowly eliminated by Inter Milan in a closely contested tie. Despite the setback, Flick’s Barcelona impressed many with their attacking style and teamwork.
In La Liga, Barcelona scored a total of 99 goals in 37 matches, showing a strong offensive force on their way to securing the league title. The season’s last game is scheduled for Sunday against Athletic Bilbao, although the title win was already confirmed before the final match.
Originally, Flick had signed a contract that was set to expire in 2026, but his rapid success has encouraged the club to secure his services for an additional year. Barcelona’s board noted the coach’s impact and the positive direction the team is heading under his guidance.
