Lewandowski and De Jong benefit from coaching change
The dismissal of Xavi Hernández as coach of FC Barcelona and the arrival of Hans-Dieter Flick will mean excellent news for two players on the Barça team. Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong, who were on the list of possible departures if Hernández continued in office, have been pardoned and are expected to continue defending the Barça shirt next season.
Lewandowski, a Polish striker, has had irregular performance during the last season and his relationship with the Catalan coach was tense. However, with the arrival of Flick, he is expected to regain the best version of himself. Lewandowski has expressed his desire to continue at the Camp Nou, since he feels comfortable in the city and has not received interesting offers from other clubs. The new coach fully trusts the 35-year-old striker’s abilities and expects him to be one of the team’s main scorers.
On the other hand, Frenkie de Jong, a Dutch midfielder, has also benefited from the change of coach. Although Xavi Hernández considered De Jong an untouchable player, his constant injuries and poor performance had raised doubts about his continuity in the team. However, Flick has paralyzed negotiations for a possible sale and considers De Jong essential for Barça. The coach believes that the club cannot afford to lose a player with De Jong’s skills and potential, and hopes that he will become one of the team’s main references.
The future of other players on the team
With the arrival of Flick, it is expected that there will be changes in the FC Barcelona squad. According to reports, the coach prefers to part with players like Pedri González or Ronald Araújo, instead of Lewandowski or De Jong. However, no definitive decisions have yet been made and we will have to wait to know the future of these players in the team.
In summary, the dismissal of Xavi Hernández as coach of FC Barcelona and the arrival of Hans-Dieter Flick represent a significant change in the team’s outlook. Lewandowski and De Jong benefit from this change and are expected to continue defending the Barça shirt next season. The future of other players on the team is still uncertain and we will have to pay attention to the decisions made by the new coach.
