Robert Lewandowski injured the worst time. In a match in the crazy scenario, FC Barcelona won against Vigo Celta and took a serious step forward towards the title. But this great success was however marred by the injury of the Polish scorer, who had to leave the lawn a quarter of an hour from the end. The Catalan press fears a break at the level of the femoral biceps, which would distance it from the land of 2 to 3 weeks and therefore for the king's cup final, see the semi-final go against Inter Milan.
For the reception of Mallorca, this Tuesday evening (9 p.m.), Hansi Flick should trust Ferran Torres in the false number 9 position, ahead of Raphinha and Lamine Yamal. *”It is important to be fresh against Mallorca. I think about a lot, and it's not easy to manage. What we want is to make the right decisions for the team. Ferran Torres is very important. He went through a pompa period of his career. His post of 9 is the most suitable, “he assured at a press conference.
Hansi Flick wants Dani Olmo in false 9
But Sport tells that another option for the long term satisfies Hansi Flick: that of including Dani Olmo in a role of false number 9. Since his arrival in Barça, Hansi Flick has already had his use in different sectors of the attack, including in this scorer role. But that's not all, because Robert Lewandowski has only a year of remaining contract and faced with an increasingly complicated scorer market, seeing Dani Olmo evolving in new is a real alternative for the future for Hansi Flick.
Already this season, against Betis, in the King's Cup, or when he entered Vigo Celta, the ex-de Leipzig was playing in this position. Its ability to attract central defenders and allow the wingers to infiltrate the depth pleases Hansi Flick very much. This emergency option could therefore become a long-term strategy, although the state of health of the 26-year-old striker worries and could force Barça to recruit this summer, Dani Olmo having missed 17 matches this season because of his physical seeds.
