Barcelona ready to lock in Hansi Flick until 2028
Early planning signals long-term intent
Barcelona are moving quickly to secure continuity at managerial level as the season progresses. Rather than waiting for results to dictate future decisions, senior figures inside the club are said to be focused on long-term stability and planning.
According to the German newspaper BILD, Barcelona have already begun internal discussions about extending Hansi Flick’s contract beyond its current end date.
Contract talks despite fresh agreement
The report from BILD states that Barcelona want to extend Flick’s deal until 2028. This comes only months after the German coach agreed a contract running until 2027, which he signed in May ahead of the new campaign.
Flick, who is 60, has been in the role for a relatively short period, yet the club’s leadership reportedly see him as a central figure in their sporting project and are keen to act early rather than risk uncertainty later.

Trust in flick’s project
Barcelona’s willingness to open extension talks at such an early stage underlines their satisfaction with Flick’s impact so far. While the season is still ongoing, the club appear eager to show confidence in his leadership and vision.
According to BILD, the intention is not driven by contractual pressure but by a desire to reinforce stability and reward the coach’s influence behind the scenes.
A statement of stability from the board
If the plans progress, an early extension would send a clear message about Barcelona’s direction under Flick. No financial details or timelines have been reported, and there has been no official confirmation from the club.
For now, the discussions reflect ambition and long-term thinking rather than urgency, with Barcelona looking to anchor their future around a coach they believe can guide them through the coming seasons.
