The recent success of FC Barcelona is down to two men who came from Bayern Munich: Hansi Flick and Robert Lewandowski. Those two came within two years of each other and helped drag the Catalans out of the deep hole they dug themselves in.

“Real Madrid, their President and their board of directors deeply regret the passing of the father of Hansi Flick, Barcelona’s manager,” Madrid’s statement said. “Real Madrid wishes to express its condolences and affection to his family and all his loved ones. Rest in peace.”

Hansi Flick reportedly stops Barcelona's move for Alessandro Bastoni due to tactical concerns and the need to find a faster partner for Pau Cubarsí.

Barcelona coach Hansi Flick is in the dugout for Sunday night’s clasico against Real Madrid following the death of his father.

Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick is unsure whether the club will be able to sign Joao Cancelo on a permanent basis during this summer's transfer window.
