Barcelona nears completion of gym requested by Hansi Flick

Barcelona is close to finishing a new gym at Ciutat Esportiva Joan Gamper, fulfilling a request made by manager Hansi Flick. The construction is in its final stages and expected to be available to the first team after the international break. Players have previously used a gym in another area for strength training and recovery. Flick's staff, particularly fitness coach Benjamin Kugel, has been closely monitoring the project, providing input on improvements to the facilities. The club aims to enhance player conditioning by providing modern equipment closer to training pitches.
