Official: Hansi Flick wins La Liga Coach of the Month award for October

Continuing his excellent start to life as the manager of FC Barcelona, Hansi Flick has won the La Liga Coach of the Month award for October.

The German tactician, who took over the reins of the club from Xavi Hernandez in the summer, has led the Catalans to a brilliant start across competitions.

Barcelona are currently leading the La Liga table with a six-point advantage over Real Madrid in second place while they have recovered well from the opening-day defeat to AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League as well.

Flick, who has managed to galvanise the entire team, had already been named the La Liga Coach of the Month for August.

Now, the 59-year-old has bagged the award for the second time for the month of October, during which Barcelona claimed nine points out of nine, securing handsome wins over Deportivo Alaves, Sevilla, and more recently Real Madrid.

Flick was competing against Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti and Imanol Alguacil of Real Sociedad for the honour and has come out on top.

Given how things are going for him and Barça, it would not come as a surprise to see Flick add more individual honours to his kitty while leading the team to silverware before the end of the season.
