Hansi Flick speaks as Barcelona's players celebrate winning the 2025/26 La Liga title (Josep LAGO) (Josep LAGO/AFP/AFP) Barcelona coach Hansi Flick confirmed on Tuesday that he has signed a new two-year contract with the club, with an option for a third season. The 61-year-old German secured a second-consecutive La Liga title with the Catalan club on Sunday with a 2-0 victory over arch-rivals Real Madrid. "Obviously I'm very happy; it gives me the confidence to keep working for another year or two," Flick said at the press conference ahead of Wednesday's league visit to Alaves. "I think many coaches would be very happy to sign a three, four or five-year contract, but in this case, with Barca, I think it's good to keep it limited and I appreciate that. "We'll continue until 2028. If all goes well, we'll decide to carry on. I have the right to stop, and so does the club." Flick joined Barcelona in the summer of 2024 and, in two seasons at the club, has won two La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey and two Spanish Super Cups. The Champions League, which Flick won in 2020 with former club Bayern Munich, has eluded him since arriving in Catalonia, however. Barcelona were edged out by Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals this season, after last year going down 7-6 on aggregate to Inter Milan in the last four. "It's also a commitment on our part to work even harder than we did this season, if that's possible, and to continue reaching the highest possible level with the team, achieving new goals and winning new titles," Flick said. "This is important for Barca, because everyone has this dream of winning the Champions League. We've tried, we'll try again, and that's all I can say." gr/mcd/nf/ea
