Barcelona coach Hansi Flick eyes Julián Álvarez as decisive signing ahead of LaLiga climax

German manager Hansi Flick is intensifying his push to secure the Spanish league title, emphasizing tactical discipline and a high‑pressing style as Barcelona approaches the decisive stages of the season, including the upcoming El Clásico.

Flick has dismissed alternative targets and is concentrating on signing Argentine striker Julián Álvarez. With Bournemouth unlikely to sell its young forward and Atlético Madrid showing little intention to part with Álvarez, Flick is urging Barcelona to accelerate negotiations and present an attractive economic offer, preferring to invest in the player he views as the primary option for leading the attack.

The coach has stressed that there is no “Plan B” and that the club must focus its resources on securing Álvarez rather than pursuing secondary options such as Kropi, which have effectively been ruled out.
