Hansi Flick referred to how Barcelona will receive Celta tomorrow at the Spotify Camp Nou, in the match corresponding to the 33rd round of LaLiga. It is the first match after the elimination in the Champions League. The German coach also spoke about his future and revealed the mystery about his renewal
Match
"We have played them three times and they have cost us all three games. We have to play at the highest level. It will not be an easy match, Celta have players who control the game and who go very well on the outside."
Feelings
"Every season is a journey. You can have a defeat like that… the team is young. The elimination in the Champions League was painful. But we have to do our best in the next games and also next season. This should motivate us. We have to improve. I'm proud of my team. Now we focus on LaLiga, we have an advantage but it's not closed yet. It won't be easy. We want to play as well as possible. We have to give it our all. Everyone is proud of the team because they gave it their all. But it's painful."

Flick
Champions
"For me it is a great dream to win it with Barca. I would like two things. The first is to win the Champions League, and I think we can do it in the next few years. We have to make the right decisions, in the transfer market… without doing anything stupid. We have to make the right decisions. We have the potential to improve. There is a good structure. And the second thing I want is to be Barcelona's coach when the Spotify Camp Nou is finished, which I don't know when it will be. It has to do with performance. I do my best. I'm very happy and I'm happy with how everything works here. It's like being part of a big family. Now we have to focus on what we have left."
In the transfer market you have to make the right decisions and not do anything stupid
Flick
Renewal
"My plan is to renew. I'm one hundred percent honest. It will be my last step in my career. I feel very good. I would like to renew, but it's not time to talk about this now."
Moral
"LaLiga is the only competition we have left. We've had a couple of days off to clear our heads. The atmosphere is fantastic but you have to translate that on the pitch and perform at the highest level. You have to learn from defeats and from every game. I feel that the team is in very good spirits."
I had a great time with the national team and with Bayern… but here I notice that everything around me is the best
Flick
Your future
"I had a great time with the national team and with Bayern… but here I notice that everything around me is the best. Looking at everything, my career and my family, I'm very happy. The feeling is very good: the atmosphere in the dressing room is great… The Champions League is a motivation. It's the dream of the club and the fans. We have to be united and try again and again… and hopefully it will come very soon."
Two titles
It's not just about winning titles, style also matters
Flick
"When we arrived, nobody expected us to have four titles already. It's a good situation. And it's not just about winning titles, it's also about how we play. It's not just about winning, it's the style, the president already told me in a letter. Style is also a success."
Shortcomings
"In these games, momentum and details also matter. Now, at the end of the season, it is important to have all the players available, and we did not have De Jong, Raphinha last week… Also, last year we had Inigo, who was a great leader… we learned. We need players who lead on the field. It's not just about talking about playing two meters further forward, but in the Champions League you also have to talk about other things on the field. The team is young and we will learn. We will."

Planning
"I speak to Deco every day that he's around, and on the phone. We focus on next season."
Rooney
"What I can say is that he is a fantastic professional. The situation is not easy for him, I know he expects more minutes. But this is how it goes. Another in that position does very well, because he is one of the best in the world. Roony is fantastic. I have spoken to him. He is part of Barcelona and plays with the best in the world, and has improved a lot. I told him we would talk at the end of the season. All the players are important and we need them all motivated to give their best."
Signings
"It's not time to talk about whether we'll sign a No. 9. We need all the players now, and then we'll analyze what we need. We have some clear ideas, but it's not the time to talk."
I don't remember what the corridor is like in Germany, I don't care about those things..
Flick
Corridor
"I don't remember how it is in Germany. It was in the covid. I don't remember. But you have to go step by step. This is about going game by game. It will be difficult. Real Madrid will fight. I don't care about these things. We want to win La Liga, that's for sure."
