Hansi Flick turned 60 in February, when his Barcelona team were 13 games unbeaten. He celebrated his birthday by inviting his backroom staff and the club's sporting director, Deco, to lunch at Ikibana Sarria, a well-known Japanese restaurant in the Spanish city. It was meant to be a low-key event, but in Barcelona even the walls seem to whisper. As he walked towards the front door, the German bumped into several local reporters and camera crews who, somehow, had found out about the meal.

Barcelona will not return to the Camp Nou this season after confirming supporters' tickets at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys will be extended through to the end of the 2024-25 campaign. Barcelona had initially intended to return to playing their home games at their iconic home ground before the end of 2024 following the stadium's refurbishment, but this has faced persistent delays.

Flick doing rotations in the first leg of Champions League quarter final after killing the tie. This is ridiculous. What a great way to handle the season.
