Hansi Flick warns: Sevilla are playing very well at home | OneFootball

Hansi Flick spoke at a press conference this Friday ahead of FC Barcelona’s visit to Sevilla this Saturday at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán. The German coach highlighted the difficulty of the match and reminded everyone that the Blaugrana side will have to stay focused for the full 90 minutes.

The Barça manager said the team is arriving at the game “on another level” compared to last season, although he warned about the potential of the Andalusian side, especially when playing in front of their home fans. “Sevilla, especially at home, are playing very well,” Flick pointed out.

One of the main topics of the press conference was the goalkeeping situation. Flick confirmed that Joan García will not be available against Sevilla after the goalkeeper had been struggling with knee discomfort. “It’s nothing too serious, but he needs to rest and we decided that he should do so,” the German explained.

Joan García’s absence opens the door for Wojciech Szczesny or Dominik Livakovic. Flick did not want to confirm who will start: “You already know I never say what team we’re going to play with. You’ll have to wait until tomorrow”. However, the coach did highlight the Pole’s experience and his understanding of the team’s philosophy.

Barça now face another test in LaLiga after securing six wins from their first six matches and moving to the top of the table. The clash against Sevilla will be another opportunity for Flick’s side to maintain their strong start before the international break.
