Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has expressed his desire to see the clubs recent La Liga title celebrations become a regular occurrence, following a dream debut season in charge.
The German manager led Barca to a domestic treble-clinching the league title against Espanyol on Thursday to add to their Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup triumphs. On Friday, around 670,000 jubilant fans flooded the streets of Barcelona, culminating in a celebratory parade to the iconic Arc de Triomf.
"When you see the faces of the people, the passion for this amazing club and how they celebrate-its really good to see," said Flick at a press conference on Saturday. "If we have this every year, its not bad. We go for this-we work hard for it in the coming years."
Despite the difficulty of sustaining such dominance, Flick believes that with focus and hard work, Barcelona can continue their success. He is contracted until 2026, and according to club vice-president Rafa Yuste, a contract extension is expected soon.
Barcelona play Villarreal on Sunday in La Liga, and although the players celebrated into Friday night, Flick suggested that wont necessarily impact his squad selection. "I always say: who can party can also work," he quipped. "They can play, so for me it's not an excuse."
