Frenkie De Jong, back after his injury, faces tensions with Hansi Flick at FC Barcelona. The coach would have sanctioned the player because of his behavior, fueling the controversy.
Frenkie de Jong’s long-awaited return to the field after his ankle injury is not going as planned. Despite appearing in two matches in October, the Dutch midfielder was left on the bench in the encounter against Sevilla.
According to Radio Catalunya, Hansi Flick’s decision was not linked to simple physical discomfort, but to a disagreement with the player. De Jong would have displayed attitudes that would have displeased the German coach, recalling a precedent with Jules Koundé, also sanctioned for a disciplinary offense.
Tensions that complicate De Jong’s return
This dispute between De Jong and Flick could slow down his return as a potential leader of the Blaugrana team. The situation remains tense, and the lack of clear communication from the Barcelona coach is fueling the controversy.
