Barcelona’s new head coach, Hansi Flick, has given a concise response to the recent controversial statements made by Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez concerning the Catalan club.
Florentino Pérez has been a prominent figure in Spanish media over the past couple of days following an unexpected press conference. During this conference, he addressed various significant issues.
One of the topics he touched upon was Barcelona’s recent La Liga championship. Pérez controversially claimed that his club had been “robbed” of the title, stating: “I’ve won 7 Champions Leagues and 7 La Liga titles… I should have won 14 La Ligas but we were robbed. This season, they robbed us of 18 points in La Liga.”
When Hansi Flick was questioned about Pérez’s remarks during his own media engagement this week, his reply was direct and effective.
The German tactician stated, “I think this is something that does not deserve a response.”
English Translation:
Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has offered a brief and to-the-point reply to recent controversial comments made by Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez regarding the Blaugrana.
Real Madrid’s president has been a major topic in the Spanish media over the last 48 hours.
This follows an unscheduled press conference by Pérez, where he discussed a range of high-profile issues.
One such subject was Barcelona’s latest La Liga title victory. The Spanish patron insisted his club had been “robbed” of it, claiming: “I’ve won 7 Champions Leagues and 7 La Liga titles… I should have won 14 La Ligas but we were robbed. This season, they robbed us of 18 points in La Liga.”
It was therefore not surprising when the subject of Pérez’s comments was brought up to Hansi Flick during his own media session this week.
The German manager provided a firm but effective response, simply explaining: “I think this is something that does not deserve a response.”
