"Barcelona" club star Raphinha revealed that two years ago he considered leaving this team:

"I was ready to leave the "Barça" team. A couple of years ago I thought my time here was finished.

Then Hansi Flick arrived and talked to me... Trust me, it took him just a few minutes to convince me."

"Without this specialist, I wouldn't be in Barcelona anymore. He changed my mentality, both as a player and as a person."

"When a coach gives you confidence... You only need a few words. I immediately felt that he fully trusts me."

Raphinha has been playing for "Barcelona" since 2022 and during this time he has won many titles.

In this season, the Brazilian has scored 14 goals.
