"Having lost the season's El Clasico to Real Madrid, the pressure is on Hansi Flick to deliver, especially against top teams."
"I ran into him in the dining room having breakfast, and I told him, 'In a week I'll tell you you're back.' He laughed."
"Now with Cole, it's the same plan. Wait and, hopefully, he'll be back soon,"
Barcelona lost the season's El Clasico to Real Madrid, increasing pressure on Hansi Flick to deliver against top opponents. Barcelona's next major match is against Chelsea on November 25, a potential litmus test after an earlier loss to Paris Saint-Germain. Chelsea reported that Cole Palmer has been sidelined with a groin injury, which would be a significant boost for Barcelona if he misses the tie. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has not definitively ruled Palmer out and described a joking exchange about his recovery, but Palmer's relapse since September 20 leaves his availability for the end of November uncertain.
