The German coach may return to the bench.
After the Champions League semifinal against Inter in Milan, Barcelona‘s head coach Hansi Flick and his assistant Markus Sorg received one-match bans from European competition. The club appealed UEFA’s ruling—and the appeal was successful.
Details: According to the official statement, the suspensions have been changed to conditional bans with a one-year probation. This allows Flick and Sorg to coach Barcelona from the bench during their upcoming away match against Newcastle.
However, both coaches will still face a €20,000 fine each for improper conduct, as that penalty remains in place.
Reminder: Following that match, Flick criticized referee Szymon Marciniak’s performance, stating that every key decision favored Inter, which left him very frustrated.
