Barcelona aims to maintain its position at the top of La Liga in the 2024-25 season as it faces a tough match against Real Sociedad. The team is relying on key players like Raphinha and Marc Casado to secure a victory over their rivals. Fans can catch the action live at the Anoeta Stadium and see if Barcelona can increase their lead in the league.
Three Premier League clubs are vying for the signing of Barcelona's highly rated young midfielder Marc Casado. Liverpool, Manchester United, and Newcastle United all see the Spaniard as a potential long-term solution in the defensive midfield position. With financial struggles at Barcelona, it will be interesting to see which club makes a move for Casado.
Flick is set to make major changes to the FC Barcelona lineup as they face off against Osasuna in a crucial La Liga match on Saturday. With the aim of extending their lead at the top of the table to seven points, Flick confirmed that there will be rotations due to the packed schedule of games between international breaks. Star players such as Raphinha and Lewandowski will be rested, while 17-year-old Lamine Yamal and midfielder Pedri are set to make an appearance. However, there is bad news for Marc Casado who won't be finding a place in the first XI.
In his first La Liga match as Barcelona's new coach, Hansi Flick surprised fans by switching to a traditional 4-3-3 formation, a notable departure from his usual 4-2-3-1 formation. The decision paid off as Barcelona secured a 2-1 victory against Valencia. Flick's tactical flexibility and trust in La Masia youth players like Marc Casado and Marc Bernal proved to be key factors in the win. The German coach has proven to be a master tactician and a believer in the club's academy players, showing a promising start to his managerial career with Barcelona.
