Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has said the club’s biggest dream this season is to win the UEFA Champions League, even as the team continues to compete strongly in La Liga.
Flick made the remarks ahead of Barcelona’s league clash with Espanyol and after the team’s 2-0 first-leg defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals, a result that leaves the Catalans needing a strong response in the return leg.
The German coach explained that La Liga remains important because it is the route into Europe, but he stressed that the Champions League is still the competition everyone at Barcelona most wants to win.
Barcelona remain in a solid position domestically, yet the club’s ambitions clearly extend beyond the league title as the decisive weeks of the season approach.
