“By bringing Hansi Flick as coach, FC Barcelona have chosen a man well known for his teams’ high pressing, intense and daring style of play which has brought him great success at club level and international level, winning pretty much all there is to win in the world of football.
“Born in Heidelberg, Germany in 1965, Flick started his coaching career back in 1996 as player-coach at FC Victoria Bammental.
“In 2000 he took over at Hoffenheim where he stayed for five seasons before moving to RB Salzburng to become part of the coaching staff under Giovanni Trapattoni and Lothar Matthäus.
“In August 2006 Flick became assistant coach to Jürgen Löw at the German national team following the resignation of Jürgen Klinsmann. Löw and Flick led Germany through a rebuilding phase and then to the final of the European Championships in 2008.
“In 2010 the team reached the World Cup semi-final, the same stage of the European Championships in 2012 before being crowned World Champions in 2014 in Brazil.”
Flick led Bayern to an historic treble which included a 8-2 defeat against Barcelona in the Champions League. The German coach was awarded the UEFA Coach of the Year award.
