Flick speaks ahead of El Clasico
Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has expressed confidence in his team’s ability to overcome Real Madrid.
According to Barca Blaugranes, the German tactician said he is not paying attention to the reported internal issues currently surrounding their rivals. He said:
”It happens all over the world. Not just at Real Madrid. I was a little surprised, but I don’t care, it’s not my club. It’s not my team. I don’t think about it.

“Our goal is to win at home. We have a fantastic team, and the fans support us. But it’s a Clásico for them too, and everyone will give 100%. They want to win. The Clásico is important for everyone.”
“For me, what we need to do is play and focus on our game. We’ve had a fantastic season and I want to see that tomorrow. I know the tension is high. It’s the best that Spanish football has to offer. We want to play as a team, as a unit. I’m not focused on anything else.”
