Following the departure of Robert Lewandowski and the potential exit of Ferran Torres to PSG, Flick admitted the Catalans must ensure they have a specialist centre-forward within their ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We have to wait. I have complete faith in Deco and we know we have to do something,&#8221; Flick told reporters at St George&#8217;s Park following an internal training match. &#8220;It also depends on Ferran. We will see how things progress.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A scheduled friendly against Preston North End was recently scrapped after the English side was hit by a significant injury crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The German tactician also highlighted internal solutions should a new frontman fail to arrive. &#8220;Lamine has filled in there for us a few times,&#8221; Flick noted. &#8220;He is a world-class talent who can adapt. While our primary idea is for him to play on the right, we will see. Gordon and Adeyemi are also capable of playing through the middle or on both flanks. We have plenty of options.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discussing summer arrival Jesse Bisiwu, Flick confessed he is still getting to know the youngster. &#8220;He has only just arrived,&#8221; he said, though he added that &#8220;you can already see his talent and pace.&#8221; Bisiwu is expected to train with the senior squad while remaining registered with the reserve team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite Frenkie de Jong&#8217;s long-term injury layoff, Flick does not consider a new midfielder a priority. &#8220;At the moment, I believe we have enough depth in midfield,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;We&#8217;ll see what the next few weeks bring.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Barcelona are set to depart England this evening following an eight-day training camp which the manager hailed as a resounding success. &#8220;It is one of the best pre-season camps I have ever had,&#8221; he beamed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hansi Flick admitted on Monday that Ferran Torres&#8217; future at Barcelona remains up in the air, conceding that<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1952,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1951"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1951\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1953,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1951\/revisions\/1953"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mktynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
