Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick has revised the disciplinary rules within the team. The German expert no longer excludes late players from the main squad as punishment, but they face serious financial penalties.
Idman.Biz reports that, according to the players' statements to the Spanish media, the amount of fines reaches tens of thousands of euros. According to Ferran Torres, the fine for being only 10 minutes late for training is 40 thousand euros (80 thousand AZN). Pedri said that Flick does not forgive even a three-second delay and immediately applies a fine.
However, the coach is more lenient towards the players' leisure time and entertainment. Thus, Flick does not prevent players from shooting videos for "TikTok" and various jokes in the locker room. The main condition for him is to show a completely professional approach to the work schedule and tasks on the field.
It should be reminded that in the early days of his tenure, Flick was remembered for sending stars like Jul Kunde directly to the reserve bench for being late for the meeting. Now, instead of removing players from the field, he prefers to "target their pockets".
