Hansi Flick is planning on utilising a host of rising talent from the famed La Masia academy as Barcelona head away on preseason duty.<\/p>\n

On the back of a tournament free summer, Flick\u2019s squad have returned for training before flying to Japan.<\/a><\/p>\n

Flick has benefitted from a revived conveyor belt of talent emerging from La Masia since his arrival at the club in 2024 with Lamine Yamal the shining light.<\/p>\n

However the German coach is keen to bring forward more talent and Malian winger Ibrahim Diarra will be given a chance in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

The 18-year-old joined Barcelona shortly after Flick arrival last summer, and impressed for the B team, and regularly trained with the first team in 2024\/25.<\/p>\n

His role has increased in recent weeks, but reports from Diario Sport<\/a> claim the club are still considering the next step in his development, after winning the UEFA Youth League in 2025.<\/p>\n

Flick\u2019s preseason plan for Ibrahim Diarra<\/p>\n

Flick is not 100% on including him in the travelling party and the arrival of Roony Bardhji has further complicated his path to a first team chance.<\/a><\/p>\n

Barcelona are reportedly considering offers for Diarra, despite his clear promise, and they must decide between a loan or a permanent sale.<\/p>\n

The former is the preferred option, despite Diarra\u2019s agent receiving several tempting offers from Ligue 1, but Flick prefers a La Liga loan to keep a close eye on his progress.<\/p>\n

If the club are forced to sell, it will include a buyback clause \u2013 which has been inserted in several recent exit packages \u2013 alongside a percentage agreed over any possible future sale.<\/p>\n

Flick charges then face FC Seoul in the South Korean capital on July 31st, before a third match, on August 4, against Daegu FC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hansi Flick is planning on utilising a host of rising talent from the famed La Masia academy as…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":72125,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1386,1582,276,50484,5727,5729,50483,2961,28730,7115,224,5337],"class_list":{"0":"post-72124","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-barcelona","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-diario-sport","12":"tag-fc-barcelona","13":"tag-hansi-flick","14":"tag-ibrahim-diarra","15":"tag-la","16":"tag-la-masia","17":"tag-lamine-yamal","18":"tag-los-angeles","19":"tag-losangeles"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114873222043003909","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72124"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72124\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/72125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=72124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=72124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
