Laporta Speaks About Talks With Flick

Barcelona President Joan Laporta spoke about his conversation with head coach Hans-Dieter Flick following the 3-0 loss to Chelsea in the Champions League. The match took place on Tuesday in London during the fifth round of the group stage.

"I had a talk with Flick on the way back from London. I really liked the reaction of Hansi and the entire team – there’s a noticeable sense of unity among everyone.

The coach is in an optimistic mood, and I am among those who believe that this game could be a turning point for us," Laporta told Spanish media. On Saturday, Barcelona will host Alaves in their La Liga Matchday 14 fixture.
