On August 23, AS reported on Barcelona’s attacking line, stating that head coach Flick will continue to trust Fati, who will be Lewandowski’s backup in the new season.
Flick doesn’t want Fati to leave and remains confident in him. Flick insists that as long as Fati trains and plays hard and boosts his confidence, he can become a high-level player. In the first training session before the preseason, Flick worked with his technical team and physical coaches to create a systematic training plan for Fati to help him regain his form as soon as possible. However, Fati was plagued by injuries, preventing him from joining the team in the United States for preseason. Flick spoke about Fati, saying: “He’s doing well in training, he’s working hard to recover his form, he will prove it on the field.”
In Flick’s view, Fati will be a qualified backup for Lewandowski: “He can give Lewandowski a good rest, and we hope Fati can get closer to the goal and show his scoring ability. Although Barca is not short of forwards, we still need a center forward.”
It is worth mentioning that Yamal also warmly refused to accept the No. 10 jersey because he wants to see Fati prove himself on the field.
