Barcelona confirmed that German coach Hansi Flick has signed a one‑year extension, taking his contract to the summer of 2028. The deal follows his rapid transformation of the Catalan side, culminating in a 29th La Liga crown secured with three matches remaining. Flick praised the limited term, saying it suits the club’s ambitions, ahead of the final league game today.

Flick arrived in the summer of 2024, replacing Xavi after a turbulent season. In his debut campaign he added the Copa del Rey, delivering the first double for Barcelona in years. Prior to Barcelona, he steered Germany for two years and guided Bayern Munich to back‑to‑back Bundesliga titles, a Champions League and a Club World Cup in 2020.

The extension arrives as Barcelona eye a historic 100‑point season, a target made realistic by their dominant run. A minute’s silence preceded Sunday’s match after Flick’s father passed away, underscoring the personal challenges he faces. With the contract now aligned to 2028, the club can assess his long‑term impact without premature commitment. Flick’s blend of German discipline and attacking flair has revitalised Barça’s identity.
