It’s a special match that will take place this weekend. This Sunday evening, FC Barcelona faces Real Madrid in the Clasico. An important Clasico since the Barcelonans, if successful, can officially claim the title of Champion of Spain. However, only one day before this shock, we hardly talk about the sporting side. It must be said that Real Madrid did well this week with an unprecedented crisis in the locker room which notably resulted in a violent fight between Tchouameni and Valverde.
The two players were fined a record 500,000 euros after this event. And while the Madrid club is torn apart around the mole in the locker room or even the Kylian Mbappé case, on the FC Barcelona side, we look at it with a rather distant eye. This Saturday, at a press conference, coach Hansi Flick was obviously questioned about the rival’s chaotic situation. And the German technician did not really wish to discuss the subject, preferring to concentrate on his team which can win the La Liga title.
Hansi Flick doesn’t want to talk about Real Madrid
“For me we have to focus on having a good game. We want to play this match and win it, that’s what we have to show, not what happens elsewhere.he first blurted out before being raised again about the fight that broke out in the locker room. But for him, it is not unique to Real Madrid. “These are things that happen everywhere, not just at Real. But I don’t want to talk about it, it’s not my team, it’s not my club. If ego is the cause of all this at Real Madrid? I don’t want to talk about Real Madrid because it’s not my team. But in my opinion, the important thing is to work as a team”.
Asked about the uncertainty around the presence of Kylian Mbappé and if it could benefit Real Madrid to play without the Frenchman, Hansi Flick was keen to defend the former PSG player. “If Real Madrid are more dangerous without him? Mbappé is one of the best players in the world. He has immense talent; for me it’s one of the best. » Hansi Flick ended his press conference by explaining that for his part, the atmosphere within the Catalan locker room was excellent. “We have a great relationship between us. We can clearly see the bond that unites the Masia players, who have known each other since the age of 12. You can’t say we don’t make mistakes, because we’re human and it can happen, but I’m happy with my team. We communicate very well, and that is important in our work. »
