Barcelona winger, Raphinha has revealed the person who made him not leave the club in the past.
The Brazilian spoke after guiding Barcelona to win the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday.
Recall that a brace from Raphinha and a goal from Robert Lewandowski gave the Catalan club a 3-2 victory against Real Madrid in Jeddah.
However, according to Raphinha, Barcelona manager Hansi Flick was the person who made him not leave the Blaugrana because the German told him he would be important.
“If Hansi Flick didn’t come, I would have left Barça. He changed everything,” Raphinha said (via Fabrizio Romano).
He told me I was going to be important. This is what a player needs. Confidence.”Flick was appointed Barcelona manager in 2024, replacing Xavi at Camp Nou.
