López, aged 21, had suffered a blow during his international participation at the beginning of the year in September and had now moved to the Ligeros. This happened a year ago when the player appeared in the European national football teams and in the Olympic Games, scoring many goals and being the highest scorer in the games.
“With Fermín, it’s a final burden,” commented Flick in a Prensa round before the Champions League participation against Mónaco, explaining that he is guilty for not speaking to the under-21 selector about his situation and explaining that he made different decisions as a newcomer to the country. From López’s point of view, the problems in Barcelona’s midfield were exacerbated and Dani Olmo also suffered a muscle injury that he maintained in the equipment for several months.
Flick also mentioned the need to protect players, especially against the accumulation of lesions. After all the adversities, Barcelona had to prevail as LaLiga leaders with a majority of 15 games in five matches. “It’s a player you need in this situation, he can be good and is very professional,” said Flick, enthusiastic about Gavi and Frenkie de Jong, who competed against each other in the competitions, not 100%.
Defender Jules Koundé suggested that the attack on the party charge was one of the main causes of this injury problem. Along with Rodri and Manchester City’s friends, it was necessary for the players to protest against a calendar that they needed more and more each time. In this context, Ansu Fati reported to Flick’s convocators for the clash against Monaco, who beat Barcelona in the Joan Gamper Trophy. Flick shows you how to rely on the equipment and preparations for this important European side.
