Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has decided to drop one of the stars of the Catalan club’s first-team football squad from the starting lineup for tonight’s match.
Barcelona is preparing to face Sevilla tonight at the “Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan” stadium in the 23rd round of La Liga, with the Catalan team hoping to take advantage of the draw between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in yesterday’s Madrid derby.
According to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional”, in a surprising and shocking move, coach Hansi Flick has decided to keep Ferran Torres, Barcelona’s recently shining star, on the bench for tonight’s match against Sevilla, despite his outstanding performance in the previous match against Valencia in the Copa del Rey, where he scored a brilliant hat-trick when he started in place of Robert Lewandowski.
This sudden decision angered Ferran Torres, who felt both sad and frustrated at not being given the opportunity to start after his recent brilliance. Torres believes he deserves a place in the starting lineup, especially given his recent performances. What’s even more surprising is that Flick’s preferred player in the squad, Lewandowski, is not well-received by some of the team’s players, which further complicates the situation.
The question remains: will this decision affect Flick’s relationship with Torres? And how will the German coach handle this anger from one of his standout players in the future?
