Flick has already decided his Barca XI for Copa del Rey final
The German coach knows his team
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has reportedly already decided on his starting XI for Saturday’s Copa del Rey final with Real Madrid.
Flick is without Robert Lewandowski and Alejandro Balde due to injury, meaning replacements will be needed, but he has a team in mind, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The German coach will continue with Wojciech Szczęsny in goal, even though Marc-Andre ter Stegen is expected to be passed fit in time for the game.
His backline will consist of Jules Kounde and Gerard Martin as the two full-backs, with Pau Cubarsi and Inigo Martinez in the heart of the backline.
Frenkie de Jong and Pedri will feature in midfield, meaning Gavi will have to settle for a place on the bench for the big game.
Lamine Yamal, Dani Olmo and Raphinha will then make up part of Barcelona’s attack, with Ferran Torres taking Lewandowski’s position as the central striker.
