Flick: We are here to win the Spanish Super Cup

  • Hansi Flick: Athletic Bilbao has many attacking options and we have to play our best game defensively and offensively
  • Flick: We have to be smart about the players we sign. Our players are progressing. Our youngsters are developing, and we have faith in them

JEDDAH: Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick said that his team is fully prepared for their Spanish Super Cup semifinal against Athletic Bilbao, in Jeddah, on Wednesday, and hopes to go all the way in the tournament.

Speaking at the pre-match press conference, the German coach discussed the team’s current form and a range of related topics, including the imminent signing of Joao Cancelo.

He said: “There are two games left to win the title. That’s motivation enough. At Barca, you want to win titles. That’s what the club and the fans want. We’re here to be successful.”

“It is a tough match against Athletic Bilbao which is considered as one of the best teams in the La Liga. Athletic has many attacking options and we have to play our best game defensively and offensively.”

On the signing of Joao Cancelo, he confirmed: “It’s not a done deal, but I’d be happy if it goes through. We talked about signing a center-back, but this is a good option for these six months.”

“Joao is a good player and he can play both (left and right) full-backs. That’s why we need him.”

“We have to be smart about the players we sign. Our players are progressing. Our youngsters are developing, and we have faith in them.
