Hansi Flick to hold individual meetings with 3 Barcelona stars this summer
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has pencilled in discussions with three important members of his squad for the summer.
This comes with a view to talking through the respective players’ places in his squad.
First up comes Jules Koundé.
Stopper Koundé has endured something of a hit-and-miss campaign in Catalunya’s capital this time round, with Barcelona understood to be open to offers for his signature as a result.
As much will be made clear to the Frenchman by his manager over the weeks ahead.
Next up comes fellow full-back Alejandro Balde, another to have struggled to impress on a consistent basis in 2025/26.
The 22-year-old appears to have lost his place in Hansi Flick’s XI to January arrival João Cancelo, and, amid widespread transfer interest, could be on the move in the summer as a result.
Youngster Bardghji for his part remains held in high regard at the Camp Nou. Amid concerns that he is not yet ready to act as Lamine Yamal’s full-time backup, however, a loan spell away from Barca is being considered for the Swede.
Flick intends to inform Bardghji of as much during a personal chat, albeit with the winger’s openness to such a move remaining to be seen.
