Barcelona boss Flick has an ‘unexpected trump card’ for Real Madrid clash

Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has a ‘trump card’ in the pack for the club’s upcoming showdown with arch rivals Real Madrid.

That’s according to Diario Sport, who point to Roony Bardghji as the card in question.

Youngster Bardghji is for his part fresh off his latest appearance in Barcelona colours in midweek.

En route to a 6-1 Champions League drubbing of Olympiacos, the Swede was introduced off the bench during the 2nd-half, and left an altogether positive impression.

As much built upon what have been several impressive substitute performances for club and country alike over recent weeks.

And such efforts could yet culminate in Bardghji being afforded the chance to impress once more this weekend.

As per a report from Diario Sport, with Raphinha ruled out, the 19-year-old is considered a potential difference-maker for El Clásico.

In the case of Barcelona requiring a spark off the bench on Sunday, Bardghji, in turn, could well be called upon once more.
