Almat Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) Hope it's just paper talk. "Barcelona are being closely linked with another former player, Rafa Marquez. The former Mexican defender could replace his former teammate Xavi at the Camp Nou in the summer, though Spanish journalist Guillem Balague doesn’t think that it’ll so be straight forward. Balague now believes that Barcelona sporting director Deco fancies Hansi Flick as a potential replacement for Xavi this summer." Flick has been out of work since September last year when he left his post as the German national team boss, with the likes of Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich also on his managerial CV. And of course, Flick was Danny Röhl‘s mentor. Röhl was Flick’s no.2 at both Bayern Munich and in the German set up, with Flick attending a Sheffield Wednesday game earlier this season to watch his prodigy Röhl in action." https://www.sheffieldwednesday.news/opinion/dejphon-chansiri-and-sheffield-wednesday-may-have-one-eye-on-barcelona-manager-search/ Edited April 19 by Almat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring no2 at Barcelona or head coach here in L1 with Chansiri as chairman. I know which most would pick. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Röhl has done a decent job here with an absolute fruitcake as a Chairman. He won't be short of suitors from elsewhere. He was desperate for a managerial position so Id be stunned if he took a number 2 job even if it's Barca. I imagine if he goes anywhere it'll be another club as manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camffiti Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Marquez, Xavi, Enrique, Guardiola ... Zidane Imagine us giving Ryan Lowe, Heckingbottom, Bullen, Vaulks or Bannan a chance These Spanish clubs clearly aren't as MASSIF as us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I can’t see Röhl going to be a #2, I’m more concerned about what would happen if Southampton fail to go up and they bin Russell Martin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMOwl72 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 It’s a journalistic error. It’s Herr Flick not Hansi and as we know Herr Flick already has a trusted number two……Helga! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Röhl wants to be a number 1 not two he's openly said this a number of times there's more likely the chance we sign young Barcelona players on loan than Röhl go there as number 2 even if we are in league 1 if Röhl leaves it will be for a number 1 position 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
