Flick Disappointed by Dro’s Departure to PSG

A Promising Young Talent Lost

Flick had nurtured the 18-year-old midfielder over the past year while at Barcelona. However, the club ultimately lost him to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

Financial Negotiations

Dro had even indicated a willingness to leave Barcelona due to his €6 million release clause before PSG decided to pay €8.5 million to ensure a favorable relationship with the Catalan club.

Flick’s Reflections

As the team prepares for their upcoming match against Eder Sarabia’s Elche this weekend, Flick commented on the situation: “I have reconsidered my feelings about it, and I prefer not to elaborate further.”

On Dro’s Decision

“I value Dro as a player, but I can’t hide my disappointment. He is aware of my feelings, yet I truly admire him. He had the potential for a bright future with us,” he remarked. “Nonetheless, he made a different choice, and in football, that’s something we must respect.”

A Focus on Recovery

Flick also expressed contentment with Marc Bernal’s comeback following last year’s knee surgery.

Optimism for the Future

He noted, “Marc Bernal is crucial for this club’s future. He possesses immense talent, but being young and just recovering from a significant injury means there’s a lot to consider.”

Flick added, “The key is to take things slowly. Everyone is eager for more playing time, but patience and consistent improvement are essential. This philosophy is what we stand by moving forward.”
