Como head coach Cesc Fàbregas has opened up on his hopes of picking the brain of Barcelona counterpart Hansi Flick this weekend.
This, of course, comes as Como and Barcelona prepare to lock horns later this evening.
The two sides have been pencilled in to do battle in the latest annual edition of the Joan Gamper Trophy.
The fixture will see tacticians of altogether contrasting experience test their talents against one another, with the aforementioned Cesc Fàbregas still building a reputation for himself on the touchline, and Hansi Flick widely considered one of football’s very best in his role.
In turn, it should not come as a major surprise to hear of the former’s plans to draw on Flick’s experiences in an effort to level up his own managerial talents.
Drawn on Barca’s headmaster by the media in the buildup to the clash, Fàbregas explained:
“I love Hansi Flick. I would like to spend only 20 minutes with him. I have so many questions. Barça play modern football. His offside trap is incredible.”
