Pedri has been a crucial figure for Barcelona, and his performances continue to impress. Flick’s confidence in the 22-year-old highlights his growing importance in the squad.
However, the win against Osasuna came at a cost. Dani Olmo was forced off in the first half after scoring a penalty. His injury is a concern for Barcelona, especially given their packed schedule.
“He’s injured,” Flick confirmed. “There are a lot of games on this schedule, and he will miss some, and that’s bad news for us.”
Now, Barcelona have confirmed that Dani Olmo has picked up a right adductor injury and is expected to be sidelined for around three weeks.

Meanwhile, Frenkie de Jong’s availability remains uncertain. Flick remains hopeful but cautious about his return.
“I hope he’s not injured,” Flick said. “He’ll be able to play on Sunday, but we’ll have to wait and see.”
Barcelona will now shift their attention to the crucial Girona match, where Flick will hope for good news on the injury front.
