Hansi Flick’s agent spotted in attendance at Barcelona vs Getafe | OneFootball

The agent of alleged Barcelona managerial target Hansi Flick was in attendance at the club’s latest outing on Saturday.

German tactician Flick, of course, has seen his name take its place centre stage in the headlines in Catalunya’s capital over the course of the last couple of weeks.

This comes amid the widespread understanding that the former Bayern Munich boss is viewed as a leading candidate to replace the outbound Xavi with a view to next season.

Joan Laporta, for his part, is particularly keen on Flick, eager to install a German on the Camp Nou bench this summer.

And, as alluded to above, on Saturday, as much may well have moved a step closer.

Pini Zahavi, super agent and newly-appointed representative for Flick, was a guest at Barcelona’s La Liga meeting with Getafe this evening.

That’s according to Víctor Navarro of COPE, who has confirmed that:

‘Pini Zahavi is in Barcelona. He is with the president of Barça, Joan Laporta, in the Montjuïc box. Agent of: Flick, Lewandowski and personal friend of Laporta.’

Could this have come amid a fresh round of negotiations surrounding Flick’s potential appointment? It remains to be seen…
