Hansi Flick reaches a major milestone, equaling Enrique at Barca

By winning 3-1 against Real Oviedo in La Liga's 6th round of the 2025/26 season, Hansi Flick hit the 50-win mark in just 67 games managing Barcelona. He ranks as the third quickest coach to reach this feat, following Luis Enrique and Helenio Herrera.

This morning, Barcelona had a much-anticipated away match at Real Oviedo’s Carlos Tartiere stadium. Despite facing difficulties in the first half and going down by one goal, in the second half, goals from Eric Garcia, Lewandowski, and Araujo helped Barcelona complete a successful comeback with a 3-1 scoreline.

More importantly, this match holds historic significance for Hansi Flick personally. Securing full points against Oviedo, the German coach reached 50 wins with Barcelona, an impressive milestone not easily achieved by every manager.

Statistics show Flick reached 50 victories after just 67 games in charge of Barcelona. This achievement makes him the third fastest coach in the club’s history to reach this landmark, with only Luis Enrique and the legendary Helenio Herrera surpassing him.

Last season, Flick secured 44 wins from 60 matches, along with a double of titles La Liga and Copa Del Rey. This season, Barcelona remain unbeaten in La Liga, with 5 wins and 1 draw. What fans particularly admire about Flick is how he has built a recognizable style for Barca: bold, attacking, free-flowing, and full of energy. Under Flick, Barca’s matches are always packed with goals, pace, and commitment. No longer reliant on individual stars, the current Barca operates as a cohesive unit with multiple attacking threats.

This style not only brings trophies but also restores faith and inspiration to supporters who once feared Barca would struggle in the post-Messi era. Now, every match at Camp Nou or away feels like a true football celebration, and Flick is the architect behind this success.

An interesting detail is that Pere Romeu (coach of Barcelona’s women’s team) also reached 50 wins last weekend with a victory over Sevilla. Like Flick, Romeu started in summer 2024, and both have been progressing in tandem regarding wins. This somewhat reflects the simultaneous rise of both Barca’s men’s and women’s teams at present.
